I suspect that unless I'm careful I'm going to buy one of these...

One assumes nobody else has one, then? I'm very, very tempted.

Is this not just a device to relieve you of the massive burden of counting lengths?
Or is it for outdoor swimming?

The former. It is like a Swimovate Poolmate but with a display that is legible, Garmin Connect linkage and all round Garmin-ness. It is also less than 30% of the price of a 910xt (and I've already got a 310xt).

Has anyone purchased one of these as yet and are they any good ?

Yes. Yes.

I've got one, and I think Island 275&285nationalradio1 has got one.

I am just on the verge of ordering one from Wiggle :-)

Any complications or annoying problems with it Greg ?

It doesn't play with TrainingPeaks at all well, and the ANT+ authorisation is more frustrating than it might be, other than that I'm delighted. A real improvement on the Poolmate I was using.
