[ Not getting much from the Equip:comp subforum so I'm reposting here ]

I spoke to my LDS about the Vyper Air and he indicated that there were issues with the hardware in the computer that was screwing up when in proximity of other Suunto transmitters that would force the comp into gauge mode and / or shut it down for 48 hours. He called his guy and found out that the Black version, which doesn't really have any new features over the current Vyper Air, does include updated hardware to avoid the transmitter problem.

The issue is that, while the Black is actually being distributed in Europe right now, the US distributor will not release the Black in the US until their current supply of the Vyper Air is depleted.

CRAP! I WANT ONE RIGHT NOW.

Has anyone ever purchased a Suunto from overseas in a fashion that does not void the warranty?

TIA
