Nice review, Umlungu.
I've only had battery issues when I didn't charge the Garmin between rides. And for centuries +, I devised this solution.
I agree that the training software that comes with the Garmin, as well as the MotionBased stuff, is a little lightweight. I've been thinking of picking up CyclingPeaks.
Actually, when I was hanging out at the end of stage 3 of the Tour of California this year, I swung by the Garmin booth to chat with the rep about a couple ideas I had for improving their system. The guy tried to hire me. But the important thing I got was that the rep said they have three big requests from customers for the Garmin Edge/Forerunner:
1) power integration of some sort
2) moving map display on the unit (show some streets, etc.)
3) Ability to put together routes on the PC and upload them to the Garmin
#3 would be really nice. I hope they're working on that.
