I've honestly never tried, but afaik, its no problem - you can adjust settings on it, so long as you aren't underwater...

I have the 180 NX, and I can switch F02 between each dive. I did it it Key largo, when I would do a wreck dive on EAN30 and the a reef dive on air. Easy to do.

You can use the computer to dive nitrox and air on the same day. (At least on my Oceanics.)
All you have to do is set the % O2 to "21" for the air dive.

Tons of low end Nitrox computers. Anything from Oceanic is pretty decent. Suunto is more conservative, but well liked as well.

I have a Suunto Gekko I've been considering selling, if you're interested.

I'd agree that computers by Oceanic are nice, and to be honest I'm starting to wonder how liberal they really are. I do like them and I love how the company takes care of the customer.

I've used the Genesis React Pro and liked it well enough. Any Nitrox computer can use a 21% mix even if it won't let you select air mode.
