so what did you go for in the end? i'm looking more at the suunto/garmin range - but not the 310xt as it looks a tad too bulky for me!

I'm definitely going to go for a Garmin, probably the 210 or 410. Waiting for my redundancy to be confirmed then going to cheer myself up with retail therapy.

I'm seriously tempted by a 310XT but they're just so fugly!

There is a sort of review of a few of them in this month's Triathlete Europe. (Suunto T3, 310XT, and Timex Ironman Global Trainer)

+1 Garmin 310XT, ease of use and I have yet to have a problem with it, fair enough I have only had it for 5 months

I got myself a 310XT. Found one on Ebay badly listed and snagged it for £191 including postage :-) Hurrah!

Now I just need to MTFU and get ready to race in a month!!
