Anyone running with the new Nike+ Sportswatch yet? It looks awesome but I heard there is no "average pace" functionality.
Are there any cons to Garmin 305 besides battery performance, slow GPS pickup and size?

Garmin 610 FTW.

those are all pretty big cons...
got a friend that ran with the nike, didn't much like it. not very feature-rich. has a few more features than the garmin 110 but generally if you're looking to get more than the most basic data you'll want to go with at least the garmin 305. second poster is right though, wait for the garmin 610 to come out. it'll be the best watch out there.
You want the 405 not the 305.
I snagged the 610 at the expo in Boston. My first run was the race. It's basically a watch sizewise. I wear it all day as a watch. I haven't charged it since Monday. (I haven't run since Monday either). It was more accurate than my 305 has been at Boston. 26.35. You program in very customizable interval workouts by time or distance. I basically put my pace bracelet into the watch and it worked well. It vibrates and beeps. I like it.
I've always been happy with Garmin's 305. It's a little bulky, but it's really inexpensive and Garmin has excellent product support should you have a problem with it. I actually bought 2 just so I always have one handy in case the batteries are dead on the first.
