Frank, I have one. I use it as a back-up compass, and the altimeter is pretty accurate, so I use the trend of the barometer to keep a jump on weather changes. My only beef is that it's so darned complicated to use. The instructions are about 25 pages long, and everything is counter-intuitive. But once the learning curve is over, it's a nice back-up and an impressive looking watch that you can use to awe other techies (read geeks) with :) Hope that helps, R/ Sluf Frank Lucian wrote: > Has anyone tried one of these watches that feature a barometer, compass, > altimeter and thermometer? > > Thanks, > Frank > *************************************************************************** > PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - All postings copyright the author and not > to be reproduced outside PaddleWise without author's permission > Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net > Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net > Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ > *************************************************************************** *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - All postings copyright the author and not to be reproduced outside PaddleWise without author's permission Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Sun Nov 14 1999 - 13:06:05 PST
