Feature request: GPS

[SaltyWombat]

I would love to see GPS supported on the next generation of Shearwater computers. It works really well on the Garmin Descent for recording dive entries & exits.

Ditto, but I suspect it is already part of the "Teric II". Shearwater is innovative; I can hardly wait to see what else is in their next model.

Any details, official or otherwise, on the upcoming models?

My ideal computer would be a Peregrine + AI + GPS. I bought the Perdix because I want AI, but I don't do any trimix diving. I just need it for nitrox.

A Teric 2 with GPS would be nice, but I prefer the larger screens which come with the Peregrine and Perdix.

I wear a Perdix AI on my left wrist and a Descent mk1 on my right. I believe companies should go with their strengths.

I have followed Ratio computers for several years

Only the iX3M [GPS} line has GPS. the iDive Sport, iDive Color, and iX3M [Pro} do not. Looks like GPS costs $150. You must opt for the Tech+ model in each line to get custom GFs, the Easy and Deep models only have presets. I have always wondered why they opted to use Buhlmann ZH-L16B rather than 16C. The light coded transmitter has always struck me as odd, they do make a neoprene cover to hide it.

It doesn't have any value to me, but I can understand why other people would like it. For me it would just consume battery power and increase cost. Hopefully not by much if they did it.

Does the GPS feature set your entry and exit points and include in the dive log like the Descent?

It is not easy to tell from their website as it looks more like it is used for tracking your position live.
