not used it, but from reading around it I believe....

it uses satellite as it's primary distance source, but will use the cadence info when satellite is not available (eg tunnels, dense forest etc.

I have my bright new shiny 305 and have measured how long it is round the block, what my heart rate was etc. I'm using SportTracks (as I use Firefox) and have a few questions I haven't seen the answers for so far. Sometimes when I've been in various parts of the menu and then press mode to go back up to the main menu, it won't do anything for a few presses. Is the button stiff or do you reckon it's faulty? Also, took it for a 5 mile run last night and the view kept going from the training one (with time, distance and all that on) to the normal clock face (where I have the time and date on it). Is there a way of making it stay on the training view all the way through the run?

Oh, it is lovely though, but I must re-learn to run looking forward rather than at muy wrist.

I just installed the new version on Vista no problems at all - however when I had Vista (under protest) on this laptop I turned off all the Mickey Mouse "Did you really want to do that?" stuff if that is your problem.
