Wow.....what a DB
I've got both a wrist computer and a console computer. I typically dive with both.
I like the wrist computer better. It's just easier to see and take a "quick glance at".
I too have both and dive both. My wrist computer is not AI though. I know people that dive them and love them. I personally prefer to have my air measurement device attached to my tank (just a current quirk of mine). It is one less thing that can go wrong because IMO the wireless function is more likely to fail than a hose. I dive with people that have wrist computers and an SPG....it really all boils down to what you want. Neither choice is wrong. If you would prefer the luxury of having everything on your wrist, buy an AI wrist computer and a console for your back-up.
If cost is a factor, then you can get some good and inexpensive computers (as LetterBoy linked to in your other thread) and a console and be off to the races.
