- It sometimes takes over 10 minutes to connect to a satellite. I run in Manhattan and Central Park, maybe it has something to do with the other transmissions in the atmosphere in this city.
- A little bulky in size. I’m a big person, but it still feels like a mini-VCR on my wrist.

Then the good:
- The device is great once it connects to the satellite, it rarely loses its connection.
- The pace is accurate, comparing with some known distances and a regular watch
- The charts and goals on the garmin website when you upload your stats are very intuitive.
- Battery life has been good so far, my longest use has been 5 hours on my bike.
- The ghosting feature to run against my previous run works very well.

Overall, everything has been working great. Just wish the satellite connection was quicker, but that may not necessarily be fault of the device.
