    Exclamation suunto d9 found in florida.

    I looked at this forum and many other boards and did not see anyone claiming this computer. So lets try posting it. If no one claims it I'll offer it for sale and fund my daughter's college education.

    please e-mail me with your description of the d9 and where you lost it. include a phone number.

    Wow that's quite a find... I own a D9 and it KILLS me if I misplace it (usually the cats knocked it off my nighstand). On a boat, I'm paranoid about it.

    Can you specify where (approximate dive site) you found it?
    Ask any potential claimants to describe the dive history logged in it (hours or a few dive details) as well as type of band, etc.(upper right button will take you to the MEM log).
    I would call Aqualung and let them know too that you have it. Unfortunately, the serial number is inside the unit or/can be ID's via the USB download. Only with that serial # can Aqualung trace it to the owner or the shop that sold it.

    Good luck.

    That's funny--mine is on my nightstand too. I never wear it unless I am on a dive trip, but the backlight is handy for checking the time in the middle of the night without disturbing my fiancee.

    No! Let the claimant specify where he lost it.

    Yes, these are good, easy ways to establish ownership.

    I wouldn't. Without the serial number, what will Aqualung do with the information? What is the likelihood that the owner calls Aqualung? I have returned a couple of wallets (cash intact) a few cellphones, and a laptop (when taxis are your principal mode of transport you find things), but there's a limit to how much I will inconvenience myself to return something. I think the OP's satisfied his ethical obligations by posting here. If nobody comes forward, his daughter's first 3 hours at Harvard are paid for!

    Much of what is posted here is in jest, and is not intended to be taken seriously. The sarcasm is often so subtle it's hard to detect.

    [CENTER] So no claims, so we sold it to one happy diver. THat should cover 1 year of books for my daughter's college.
    Now we need a winning lottery ticket to pay for the tuition.
