Why can't people (me) just make up their mind, already.

Problem with a data mask is . . . if it gets kicked off, and you cannot grab it, you have lost a pretty darned expensive piece of equipment.
Also, if you have to send it in for work, you've lost your favorite mask.
Lastly, by putting readers (or full Rx lens) in your mask, the choice of other equipment does not need to be affected by vision.
As for the camera . . . it's easier to tell when it's out of focus when you have lenses in your mask.

I appreciate your decisiveness.
If you want hose-less AI....I will stick with my suggestion of a DataMask. I wear glasses, they are required for me to drive. I can see the display without a problem. I like my DataMask just fine.
There, do you feel better now? Now I have opened myself to all kinds of comments about my personal choice which in some threads is like blood letting in shark infested water.
Good luck in finding the right one. I have found what I wanted.

Do you reallllllyyy want to go console? One of the units i was looking at was the oceanic vt4.. Its bigger then a traditional watch dive computer--- yet smaller then the luna.. Has wireless AI--can check multiple transmitters(so you can check on wifeys/gfs or both's air supply without having to ask and try and get data from them)--dual algorithm's( so can use dsat on shallower repetitive dives or z+ nor more tech style dives)--not to much more expensive then your pp2.1.. I wont use my watch style dive computer as a walk around watch-- so i like that the vt4 is bigger then a traditional(d9/oc1) style dive watch(more data-- easier to read while actually diving)..
throw some reader inserts into your mask-- and a good sized wireless AI wrist based computer-- and off ya go

See Gator, I told ya somebody would come up with a reason to bash my choice.

Not bashing your choice - I'm assuming you made one that is right for you.
Just letting Gary know some of the cons. I was on a boat where a guy lost his -- came up after a successful dive, and hung the mask on his valve. Someone 'ungearing' next to him caught it up and over the side it went. Hate to watch a man cry.
