Has anybody used the Garmin Forerunner watches?

I've been running a lot while training for a marathon, and run a lot in general, I think one of those watches might be useful. I assume it uses GPS to track distance and speed? Are some of the advanced features of the higher end (and more expensive)


I got the 305 for Christmas, its pretty awesome it tracks speed,time,heart rate and zone, pace and when you hook it with your computer you can see where you ran through google maps, plus you get a chart with all those stats.

This week is a good week for the "first", though - running since Thursday night the first night since last winter, this is a good change, breaking the monotony of my morning routine and run after missing a week two and Wednesday. In addition, it is a great run, only to, and movement.
