Garmin Forerunner 305 GPS Receiver With Heart Rate Monitor

I stopped using this device altogether because it can't locate GPS satellites where I start my runs in New York City (Midtown Manhattan) due to the tall buildings.

I often found myself waiting and worrying about trying to get a satellite location rather than focusing on the actual run.

The included software for reading your GPS data is also antiquated and confusing.

The heart rate monitor function works very well, better than a cheaper Timex model I previously owned. But I'd rather have a standalone HRM with a smaller watch since the GPS doesn't work for me.

I gave it 4 stars over all, because again, the criticisms aren't deal breakers, in day in day out use on actual runs this device shines, it's all the stuff ancillary to the run where garmin needs to work on improvements, like the data anaylsis, drivers, HRM strap update, etc.

SwissGear Computer Backpack (Black/Gray)

The product quality was really nice.
But this didn't fit my 16 inch acer laptop. The max it can take is a 15.4 inch laptop.

I have a Toshiba computer with a 17" screen and dimensions of 14" by 10.5" and it fits in this backpack, but you certainly couldn't fit anything larger. I highly recommend this product. It is well made and has a lot of pockets for organizing your stuff. I plan on using it when I start Law School in the fall because I will need to take my computer everywhere, though I'm not completely sure if there will be quite enough room to hold all of my books in addition to the computer.

This a very nice laptop bad with enough space for additional stuff. It is very well padded and is not a strain to carry the bag on your back for periods of time. I use it with a 15.4" Lenovo and it fits very easily in the bag. Right next to the laptop compartment, there are pouches to keep the charging cables and mouse, etc. There is enough space in the other pouches to carry other accessories also. Its looks are sharp too.
