Thanks.
There's not much room, but we are looking at that.
The Cobalt is set to a generic sea water density as to how it converts absolute pressure readings to depth- this was just a decision on our part to not complicate the interface with another option. The pressure reading (which is what all algorithm calculations are based on) is highly accurate, but it might not map in depth reading to another computer that defaults to, say, fresh water density. I don't know if this accounts for what you saw, but you can check the Cobalt's pressure accuracy on the surface by comparing the reading in the System Info screen to a good barometer- we use a local University Atmospheric Sciences department that keeps current readings live online. It should be within a few millibars, and roughly 30 millibars = one foot of depth.
Thanks for the other suggestions, they are all thing being worked on.
