The things I see that the Geo has that the Veo doesn't:
Set safety time and depth
Gauge mode
Message Box (vs Bar graph)
twice the download memory capacity
Conservitive factor (which simply decreases your NDL, great for people like me who dive at all sorts of altitues because of where I am)
Watch Stuff: time, alt time, countdown timer, stop watch, alarm (which is covenient for me because I use almost every day at the pool when I'm swimming laps)

thanks.
I've got the 250. my input:

The VEO 250 does have have a user set-able dive time and depth alarm.
It has a gauge mode.
You can dial in your conservatism in terms of acceptable PP02 loading. This might be different from the "conservatism factor" on the GEO.
It doesn't have all the watch features, tableleg mentioned.

It does have an adjustment for altitude, so it works fine for altitude dives.
