I'm looking for an entry level (zoop, vyper, ect.) computer for my wife. Please feel free to PM me if you have one you'd be willing to part with.

I'm just checking to see what's out there, I figure a used zoop should go for around $125. If there's nothing for sale I'll just get a new zoop.The zoops are clearing out for $199 at several online shops, have a look if that fits the budget.
My wife and I are going to Key Largo in a month, so I'd like the computer before then. I'll pass on the Favor Air, I'd like the battery to be compatible with the newer Suunto's so I don't have to keep extra bits and pieces around for service. Thank you for the offer though.Another option you might check is the new Deep 6 dive computer that is supposed to be released in the next few weeks for about $140. I believe it runs a RGBM algorithm which should be somewhat similar to Suunto's proprietary RGBM algorithm.
I do have an old (early 90's) Suunto Favor Air in my garage gathering dust that I learned on. It's lack of bottom time (plus not nitrox capable) is what convinced me to buy an Oceanic. If you want it PM me.
