I just tried my Garmin Forerunner 305 GPS on an after Christmas run, and I love it. I currently own other quailty Garmin products (eMap & Nuvi) and the build quality and attention to detail are on-par with my previous experience; in a word – superb.

I considered several other makes and models, but pretty quickly settled on the Garmin 305 as it contains all the features and functions I desired, at a great price. You can read all about the many features directly from the Garmin web site or the many other excellent reviews of this unit. I’ll be brief and just give the basics I noticed.

This 305 is an excellent training tool, and an upgrade for me from a Timex Time & Distance watch which used a separate GPS unit. What the Garmin offers in a single piece of equipment is auto-lapping on time or distance, auto-pausing when you stop for a traffic light, and Large Clear data fields that you can actually see while running. My package also included a heart rate monitor, which seems to work well also. It was noticeably but not uncomfortable to wear, and captured accurate data.

Garmin offers users the ability to capture and track workouts on the included Training Center software. Another free product is Garmin’s MotionBased software that has just been upgraded to Garmin Connect. This lets you upload your workout data to the web site for more tracking and reporting options.

I give the unit 5 star rating on features, function, build quality, and support in terms of a great web site. You can’t go wrong with the Garmin 305.

The OtterBox has save me many times from replacing my iPhone since I have a tendency to drop phones. I broke the screen once before the OtterBox while using the Speck CandyShell, so I looked for a new solution; the OtterBox was that solution and it was worth every penny!

This cable works just as well as any other cable. There are only two problems. First of all, the cable is unshielded which screws up the signal when near other power cords. I use my PS3 with this cable, and because the cable is close to the power cord, the signal gets interrupted which leads to lost audio and lag. Overall, i would not buy this cable again, because even though the price is so low, i would just get the same problems. It’s best to get a Category 2 certified HDMI cable, and even those aren’t too pricy, I am buying the MediaBridge one for $10.

Our book club chose this book based on Amazon customer reviews. It didn’t disappoint. We have talked about it continuously and realte it to many of the other novels we read. I highly recommend it!

This watch has been great for me. I don’t currently use every feature but it is easy to use and quick to learn.
