Agreed. I'd much rather get a full service Suunto with GPS and what have you, and spend the extra $3500 on one of D.R.'s new Air kits. That still leaves me with a grand, so I'd sink that into a nice PLB, some 14 mile 2-ways, a backpack solar charger and a few other items..

Ah... I could get a lot more neat out of $4500. :-) It's definitely cool, but I'll save it for when I hit that first million.
