Anyone Tried the New Cressi Leonardo?

[BinkyT]

My last computer was a console-mounted Skinny Dipper (circa 1987) although I sold that many years ago.
Just ordered a pair of Cressi Leonardo computers ($180ea). The initial reviews look good for basic sport diving. Anyone have any practical experience?

I've not used it but watched the video:

What bothers me about it is the single button. I find it hard to believe you can easily work through the menu system with only one button.

I work at an scuba store and we have it, it is pretty easy to use for a one button computer and it's very cheap for a computer with that screen. I like it a lot more than the other computers in the same price range, namely the suunto zoop, mares puck and oceanic veo 100.

I took it for a virtual dive with our simulator

i work at a dive shop and recently received a new leonardo
it is easy to work with and in answer to a question of having only "one" bottom to access and change settings, the computer is very easy to use and once or twice in going through the system, it is effortless and easy to remember all functions
the leonardo is a computer, with the multiple setting with degress of safety a great feature, and also a bottom timer.

I noticed a guy on who was on my boat for two days in a row in Cozumel about a month ago had one. I asked him about it and he concurred with what I've seen in reviews like this one.

Where did you find that price?

Diver's Supply offered them as Black Friday Sale effective through Nov. 28.

Computer was recommended by Jack in the Marietta store - he has been a great help.
