I still have my first computer, an Aeris Atmos Pro. It's served me well despite being abandoned on an airplane once and abused in caves and wrecks. I got a brand new Uwatec Smart Wrist Computer last month because of a promotion from Scubapro to it's dealers, and it's now, uh, for sale. I'm trying to make a decision about my dive computer future. First, I dove a Dive Rite Nitek3 in Fla cause my buddy had one and he borrowed one for me. I liked it, but it won't do trimix. I can get it at dealer cost, which I can't reveal but I think is $638.00. I saw an OMS VR3 (The NEW one, NOT the old BRICK) and it was very cool, does trimix, capable of 10 mixes, switchable under water, nice display, has video games for deco, but is very expensive ($1400) and is unproven. I might dive something unproven but not something OMS AND unproven, right? Third (or fourth, or whatever), I have heard internetwise from a lot of folks who disdain computers at all, they say you should know how deep you're going, how long you're going to stay, what you're going to do when you get there and know all your deco stops, and if you don't you are WRONG and will DIE!
So let's debate and help little Campana make his decision, no rush, what kind of computer would YOU get if you were in my pickle, if any? Should I become one of the persons who says "No thanks, I'll cut tables and stick to my profile?" This might get a little annoying, say, on the wall at Roatan with Dee and Beast and I've gotta go up because my profiles say so and Dee just spotted a new Juve-drum or something.
Please don't say "Make sure it does Nitrox", Ok?
Everyone gets to vote.
Thanks.
