+The Weasel Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 YES, YES, OH YES. A new Garmin toy is coming out in a few days. Like the nerd that I am, and the constant need for new toys, I pre-ordered min already. Has anybody else ordered one or plan on doing so? I think it would be need to see how much walking I do in a year while caching!! http://www.garmin.com/products/forerunner201/ Quote Link to comment
+drat19 Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 Oh man, between this one the 60CS, Garmin's product development and marketing teams have ceratinly been hard at work coming up with new ways to separate us from our money, ya think? -Dave R. in Biloxi Quote Link to comment

+Desert_Warrior Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 No use for it. Officers and senoir NCOs should not run... it scares the younget troops! Quote Link to comment
+Brian - Team A.I. Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 But what if you're running in place? Does it still count laps/distance/yadda yadda for you? Seriously, I'd love one of those. Quote Link to comment

+Breaktrack Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 No use for it. Officers and senoir NCOs should not run... it scares the younget troops! I'm with you Warrior, life's too short, walking lets me see the scenery a little bit better.....LOL. Quote Link to comment
+The Weasel Posted November 21, 2003 Author Share Posted November 21, 2003 Ordered mine, Garmin just sees to be slow on shipping them!! From what I understood, they won't be shipped until the 26th? Quote Link to comment
+macdaddymd Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 Apparently the Forerunner has developed a problem of water accumulating under the bezel, necessitating a recall. New ship date is 12/18. First users to receive them have noted the problems. Quote Link to comment

umc Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 I'm trying to decide if I could buy the forerunner for my wife for Xmas. She is a runner might like something like this and she is currently training for another marathon. The Meridian Platinum that I got her for her Birthday didn't go over to well though.

+macdaddymd Posted November 27, 2003 Share Posted November 27, 2003 I was told about the Forerunner recall by the vendor from whence I ordered mine. His source is Garmin, he says. I have no independent verification. However, by my eyes alone, I see that it is true... since I don't have mine yet!! Quote Link to comment
