The current version of the Finis Swimp3 (yellow and black) resumes from exactly where you left off, so is great for audiobooks. If I recall the earlier models did not.

Unfortunately there isn’t a way to – but in many cases, you can find others on there and then copy it.

If biking is your primary interest, go with the Edge 800. It is a pretty amazing bike computer. Having the maps is great for trails or new terrain. Big screen. Reliable. If you don’t care about swimming, the combination of the 610 and Edge 800 is about as good as you can get right now.

I actually had a 910 and after 6 months I sold it and went back to using my 310. 910 had speed/distance accuracy issues and many people still have problems with the altimeter. I don’t swim much any more and use my Edge on the bike so it was primarily a running watch. Haven’t missed the 910 a bit.

Garmin has a 1 year warranty. So why are you paying $99 after 60 days? Did I miss something somewhere? That said, the REI take it back almost no questions asked policy is pretty impressive. But even more impressive is the knowledge we get from using this site. So which is more important to you? Easy return if anything goes wrong or rewarding Ray for all of his great work?
