We've had this conversation over and over again on SB. Many divers know nothing about the various decompression algorithms and the differences between them. I generally encourage buyers to learn some before they make their purchase, mainly to avoid buyer's remorse.Bluetooth vs a cable is an issue of how you work with the computer out of the water. I feel that how it works in the water is a higher priority. I would choose the Geo 2 over any Aqualung computer because of how it works in the water - specifically, the algorithm that it lets you use that no Aqualung computer offers.
I would spend the extra for the data cable rather than have the Aqualung with more convenient (or less expensive) downloading but also only one algorithm, which is also more limiting to NDLs than the DSAT algorithm that the Geo 2 also offers.
