Garmin Forerunner 205,
02/04/2008
This is much, much better than the 201. stays locked on the satellite even when you are around tree's, buildings and bridges for far better accuracy. The great new design will seem big to you at first but, that feeling will quickly fade... Walmart offers the cheapest price for this item. I looked in all the stores and even online. nobody beats them...

Exceeded expectations,
10/12/2009
I was very pleased when I began using the Forerunner. It seems big at first, but I have gotten used to that. The battery lasts quite a while on a single charge. It is exceptionally easy to upload the data. It can provide a lot of information or just the minimum - depending on what you want during your activity. I even discovered that I can use it for geocaching and it is surprisingly accurate. Sometimes more accurate than my Garmin eTrex. I love this product.

Better than expected,
08/14/2009
We needed the unit to track our evening walks for distance, time and pace. The unit has a lot of functionality and was a bit overwhelming at first. Two questions to Garmin and we were in business. Garmin was extremely helpful. We enjoy the unit and look forward to expanding our understanding and use of it.

Garmin 205,
12/17/2008
I have a Garmin 201 which works great but I decided to try the newer model 205 to see what improvements were made...Unfortunately I found the 205 lacking...Smaller readouts, clumbsy size, very hard to hit buttons especially when running, and not much different functionallity then the 201...I'm staying with my 205 and probably buy another one just for a backup...
