In the final analysis, I view the whole Apple / Huish dive computer offering in the same way that I view those hinky scissors attached to my childhood Swiss Army Knife — it’d probably do in a pinch; but is largely redundant and really just a novelty, considering other more dedicated gear that I have on hand . . .
See that's what I don't get. And I'm not being snarky. What is is about this product that has people claiming that it's not "enough" of a DC?
I mean, it's not enough for my personal applications, since it won't let me monitor 3 O2 sensors and calculate deco. But for the other 95% of divers in the world, it seems like more than enough. Why is it just a novelty? You can certainly get a dive computer for less money than this, but for the vast majority of divers, this seems fine.
All you need for a DC to work is a pressure sensor, some way of keeping time, and some way of doing math, right?
