dmaziuk - not sure about the science but I'll take your word for it. I think the sample size gives you a better idea of your dive profile when you download it (from what I've read). Do you have any recommendations for dive computers?

Really it will not make a material or noticeable difference on the dive or the plotted profile. I do down load dives and look at the profile the systems show a graph in a window on the screen, so 40-60minutes in 20cm.

But it is your money and your choice.

No, it's still in production and on Suuntos web site. I think the Zoop is being discontued though, can't remember where I read that though.

On the plotted profile every hand wave will be a sawtooth spike. Like I said, you go up and down on every breath cycle, you want that smoothed out on your profile plot -- that's the opposite of what you get from plotting with higher sampling rate. Aside from being able to actually display it on your screen in any meaningful fashion.

As for the recommendation, it's all over this forum right now: wait a month for Deep6. If I were buying myself right now, I would either do that or buy a Hollis TX1. Vyper and Giotto, specifically, are pretty much irrelevant right now because the $150-200 "basic" computers have grown the same features they have, and the $300-500 computers come with way more goodies.

$275 is a decent price for vyper + uplink kit, though, so if you need one right this second, it's not a bad option.
