 Accurate and Easy to Use September 30, 2008
Joel Kaluzny (Huntington Beach, CA)
I bought this GPS to help me train for a marathon. Knowing my pace was a huge difference in helping me run longer distances. The watch seems very accurate and is simple to use and configure to your liking. I love it

 Satellite and Electronic Problems - Not Recommended September 26, 2008
agedrunner (Aurora, CO)

I purchased the 205 in October of 2006. I found that the unit had problems locating satellites in the city or running in areas with tree branches overhead. This included Pittsburgh, PA, Ohiopyle in PA, and Golden Gate Canyon in CO. It worked fine on wide open trails. It also locked up a couple of days ago and appears to have a battery problem or software problem with the unit. This appears to be the same problem I have seen reported by other users. With a minimum repair charge of $89, it seems high given the cost of a new unit. Based on the reliability I have had with my unit, I will not buy another unit or recommend it to any other potential buyer.
Tip for Small Wristed Women September 19, 2008

I love my Garmin Forerunner 205 except that it is uncomfortable on my wrist when worn conventionally. I have seen this complaint from other females. Turning the watch around so that the face is on my inner wrist fixed the problem completely. This may work for others.
 Great Product--Horrible Software September 17, 2008
Normalized Chaos (Los Alamos, NM United States)

I am really impressed with the Forerunner. Although the product is LARGE, it is lightweight and you will forget that you have it on. However, the included software SUCKS big time--geared for a single user and NO LOCAL MAP SUPPORT. Tracks are not easily exported to common open formats such as Google Earth. I am now using the freeware Sports Tracks Software (http://www.zonefivesoftware.com/SportTracks/), definitely an improvement.
