Has anyone evaluated or does any have a Garmin Forerunner that they could provide a review on? I'm specifically considering the Forerunner 610 model.

I saw a post where MDinana said his wife had one, but didn't say the model or review it.

It's quite pricey, but I need/want both a new watch and another GPS (maps not necessary).

I had a HighGear compass watch but I had it strapped to some luggage and it got snagged in an airport x-ray machine, ended up busting out both edges of the plastic part of the case where the pins for the straps attach and the crystal seems to have a crack or at least a bad scratch. Given that the two items individually could total to close the cost of a Forerunner, I may seriously consider it if I can get some first hand reviews.

Thanks,

buckeye
