What if they release an incremental updated with bug fixes and GLONASS support?

As I mentioned to them, I’ll need more than just ‘the day before’ their campaign ends to check it out. As of yet I haven’t backed it, sorta want to see it in real life.

Natively I’m a Londoner but I’m away at college on the other side of the country so I’m having to get my fix of the big smoke from blogs – I love that your impression of it was how many cyclists you saw – it certainly hasn’t always been like that xD

Any update on Instabeat? I heard about it via link to techcrunch.com

Looks like it’s getting some more press. Hope to hear your review soon!

I already have a 310xt, and now I am looking for a GPS for navigation to explore new routes and find my way through the city. I don’t train very seriously, I am more of an everyday bike user.

It looks like the better value than the Edge 800 for general cycling use, larger screen, much more memory, and a 3-axis compass. Does speed/cadence and heart rate, but no power meter and no virtual partner.
It is a bit larger and takes replaceable batteries, which is a big plus for me.

I’ve found some conflicting reviews about the screens in sunlight. In general the Oregon seems to get more consistent good reviews and the Edge has a much better mount..

Has anyone both Oregon and Edge and can comment?
