"This will be a valuable training tool and made a wonderful gift for a gadget geek like me."DennisB
Ease of use
So far so good, but I have only taken it out once.
Fit
Changed to the longer strap (included) and the unit fit fine.
Comfort
Can't really even tell it is there once you get going.
Value
For the information and data this thing tracks and allows you to analyze, I think it was a fair price.
Appearance
Could look better I guess but it's not like you have to wear the thing everywhere.
Performance
For the extremely short time I have used it, this thing rocks and I am very happy with it.
Strengths
Tracks all kinds of data about your training that you can upload to the computer and analyze. Pace time, lap time, just plain old Central Standard Time, heart rate, speed, elevation, route maps, etc., etc., etc.
Weakness
If you try to display a lot of information on the summary screen, it gets hard to read. As most people tell you on the forums, read the manual and you can customize it to display whatever you want.

Ease of installation
Software installation was a breeze and getting the 305 to synch up with the computer was no problem.
