i love the Atmos 2... can't say enough good about it. all you need in a nitrox
computer, and cheap too ... the batteries last for ever, and are easy to change.

I had a darwin console (same as wrist) batterys were very easy to change. Just as well as it chewed thru them real quick. It would also reset it self if it got any sort of impact.
The software and download side of it was good, but I would not recommed the darwin.
I have a Cobra and a Mosquito and much prefer them. Although I much prefer a console to a wrist mount due to my habit of sticking my hands into cracks to pull out bugs.

The Atmos 2 will be much smaller, yet have much larger numbers, and I feel much easier to use. A very intuitive menu and button system. And if you do want to download, the cable is only a $50 add on instead of $125.

Versa Pro is exactly the same computer but a little cheaper: http://www.scubatoys.com/store/detail.asp?product_id=VersaProWrist
My only complaints are that the dive time displayed doesn't include seconds and the software is a POS.
I like the computer download cable though because it allows me to look at my dives in more detail and to compute my SCR (after importing the data to Excel).
