    Edge 500 works a treat for me.

    Not sure have not researched the 150. Google DC Rainmaker and see what he says about both units.

    I can get the 500 for 220 with HR and cadence.

    or the 800 for 330 with HR and cadence.

    I think the 500 suits my needs !

    I've used handtec.co.uk and found them much cheaper and faster than amazon for gps stuff - they seem to have a good rep over on the cycle forum too. Don't buy before you check them out.

    They use DHL for deliveries - i know that might not suit everybody with not being able to receive packages in work and collection or whatnot.
