Yeah there is a reciever part that has to be on the surface to pick up the GPS signal.It's a hack. According to their literature, there's still a floating part you have to drag around with you.

I agree the Atomic Cobalt dive computer looked pretty sweet, I liked the electronic compass feature. According to Atomic there will be a wrist computer as well in the near future.Although the GPS unit was very impressive, my favorite new toy at the show was the new Atomic Cobalt dive computer. Very impressive. Available in the spring retailing for about $1100 to $1200.

...can you share any more details on the Atomic Cobalt computer ? ...there seem to be a bunch of new dive computers released in recent months, it appears a lot of manufacturers have identified dive computers as a substantial profit center, so there appears to be a fair amount of competition lately in the dive computer segment.
Wow. I'm not sure my wrist could hold up a weight-integrated computer.
