Thanks for all the advice everyone. It sounds to me like AI is nice if you can afford it but far from essential. It's not that $200 is a whole lot of money to me it's that I'm planning on buying my whole set up at once, Aeris Atmos 2 nitrox console with download cable, Mares Abyss regulator, mares proton octo, Ziegle Ranger BC, and a Mares Isotherm Semi-Dry suit. Scuba toys has given me a very reasonable package deal for all of this but it's still a lot of money to spend at one time. I'm only open water certified right now and only have a couple of dives, but I want to make sure I'm not having to upgrade within a year, I think this set up should take care of me through advanced training, and hopefully I'll have no need to upgrade for a long time. Of course if they come out with a mask that projects your computers information right on the lens, I'll be all over that right away, that would be very cool. Thanks again for all the advice.:blinking:
