Scubatoys hooked me up good on the downloader, and I got my standard 10% off on the computers, one blue, one yellow, for my wife and I...

They have standard watch mode, air or nitrox mode, free dive mode and gauge mode. Aside from free dive mode, the settings are almost identical to the VEO180nx...

The only downfall is that the screens are relatively small, but, I have good eyesight and it is awesome to have a computer as small as a large wristwatch... I also ordered the sports straps, which are velcro wrist bands - it appears these are perfect for putting on over a wetsuit. If you leave the standard wristband, they have a standard size band, and a band extender... Another cool thing they included was a screen protector similar to what you might buy for a cell phone. Easily replaceable and definitely better than scratching up the face...

The battery is also easier to replace than the VEO/Atmos's....
glad you are happy with your purchase - just ordered one for my wife.
