gmoney says "A smooth workout." about Spirit XE 550 Eliptical Trainer

This unit is very smooth and quiet. I feel like I'm taking big steps and that makes it feel very natural.

I have just started using this because I want to get back into shape, and my knees can't take the pounding of running on a treadmill anymore.

The built-in fan really feels like it makes a difference.

My only complaints are the user interface in two areas. First, after storing a memorized programs it takes a long time to modify it Second, the display won't stay on a setting I want (e.g., calories or speed).

It does seem a little wasteful that you can't turn it off. It shuts itself down after 20 minutes of no activity.

gmoney says "I Love the GPS; the Bluetooth, not so much." about Garmin - Nuvi 360 GPS Device

I recieved the Nuvi 360 as a Christmas present. It's now early february, and I still can't seem to get the connection between my phone and the unit to "stick".

Every time my phone goes out of range, and then comes back, I have to re-enter a pin before I can use it. Then, it will occasionally lose connection even when I haven't moved the phone or the GPS an inch.

I'm sure there is an easy fix, but it sure isn't easy to find.

However, for the GPS itself, I love it. I find the user interface very intuitive and the mape features easy to use. It picks up the satellite in no time, even when I've flown and turn one the unit hundreds of miles from when I last turned it off....
