Fetchies are great for advice. I don't mind the alerts on my 235. Did make sure I didn't wear it to a recent job interview, mind you. |

You can put it into "do not disturb" mode, but better safe than sorry in a job interview MOVE !! |

Hi Synge, you are correct, you don't need a PC. You finish your run, the watch syncs with your phone via Bluetooth onto the Garmin Connect app. This in turn syncs with Garmin Connect which then in turn syncs with |

^ what CW says. I didn't buy the 235 for this, but IMO it's a major improvement on the ant stick approach of my previous model (610 in my case). It's typically all synched seamlessly (and the alert confirms it back to the watch from However. If you don't carry your phone the watch will have nothing to BT to. At least, not until you get back within range. Which may be good enough for you, or not, depending on what you really want. |

Thanks, both, that sounds as if it is just what I want. (And, yes, I understand about needing the phone to get the data away. I don't normally run with it, but it will always be more accessible than a PC if I am away from home.)

Another question - can you confirm the maximum number of data fields visible at once? I tend to have four showing on the 310XT when running. Elapsed time since start, total distance, current lap pace (ie pace for the current mile), current actual pace. I can manage with just the first three of these, but wonder if four are available with what looks like a smaller screen? |

4 is fine, in fact with ConnectIQ (think Garmin's answer to apps) you can get many more, I think I have seen datascreens with 10! 4 is as the limit of my vision, but then again I am going blind. You can have these configured in a 1-2-1 configuration or a 2 up - 2 down way. |
