OSOK 0 #1 March 19, 2007 Amazon now has a nice 2-day free shipping sale going on the electronics, and both Foretrex apply. Can you please give your inpunt on which one you'd recommend, having tried both? The free-shipping ends in about 20 hours... so... Thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mbondvegas 0 #2 March 19, 2007 I have the fortrex 201...it works great. The only differnce is the batteries. I prefer the 201's rechargable internal batteries.- - - I am not afraid of tomorrow, for I have seen yesterday and I love today. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris-Ottawa 0 #3 March 19, 2007 Major difference.... 201 allows you to download the log to the computer, 101, nada. Don't quote me on this, but I'm about 98% positive. I almost bought one for running and wated to get it for skydiving as well. I bought a Neptune Instead. Next investment is a 305 with heart rate monitor as well. Anyone ever monitored their heartrat on a skydive and found out where the peaks were? Mine would peak at "DOOR", I'm sure of it. Chris"When once you have tasted flight..."

KRBKV 0 #4 March 19, 2007 One benefit of 201'st is included interface cable. 101'st does not have one. You could buy this cable any time you wish. Built-in recharcheable batteries IMO is not an wide benefit. For 101'st you could use rechargeable batteries in size AAA or simple have in your gear bag a bunch of AAA for places without electricity.

Tonto 1 #5 March 19, 2007 You can go a long way with a pocket full of AAA batteries. Try organising a recharge on the slopes of Aconcagua. tIt's the year of the Pig. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
