I know, I was being tongue in cheek.I think they would prefer to use Buhlmann ZHL-16C with GF rather than a proprietary RGBM decompression algorithm, and would like to be able to use commercially available dive planning software
However the Eon uses the Fused RGBM, which is less conservative than the normal RGBM, and appears to be close to DSAT. The DM5 planner is okay, by that I mean for sub 40m dives into deco. Now I wouldn't use planning software for a dive to say 40m with a 50% deco gas for a total run of less than an hour As I know my consumption, my rock bottom etc and can figure out my gas requirements etc (and my paper calcs are always conservative) Using the data from a previous dive with my gas in and out, DM5 is damned close with the actual run time and the gas out. On the same dives my Buddy had his OSTC and only had maybe 2 mins less deco than I.
I know Suunto have an up hill struggle to be taken seriously in the market for a "soft technical" computer. By soft tech I mean perhaps one deco gas mix to depths less than 50m, which is still more than a lot of people will do. The fact is, although it isn't everyone's cup of tea, and that's fine. Bu tthe Eon works, and is reliable. It had some niggles, (tanks transmitters) but Suunto have been great sorting them out, and have been open with meaningful dialogue over improvements and additional features.
I was astounded with the number of people who jumped all over the H3 before it had been proven. 2 years on it's proven to be a big fail. I suspect Seabear was rolled into Scubapro to get rid of the name, rather than there being a new computer on the horizon (although who really knows?)
