Re: [RC] [RC] [RC] Forerunner 301 Review - April

Just a note. The 201 does not have the same functionality as the 301.
There are significant differences between the two units. The 301 is a
major upgrade with more bells and whistles, including the heart rate
functionality, custom and schedulable workouts, USB connectivity,
enhanced trackpoint management, route support, and better PC software.
I'm sure I'm missing some, but those are the differences I can think
of right off-hand.

If all you want is a good GPS unit to show you speed/distance, etc,
the 201 _is_ an excellent choice, especially at $113 shipped from
Amazon.com. I own a 201 and used it all last year. Loved it, but can't
imagine going back to using it after using my 301. :-)

product as the 301, but without the heartrate function.
