My sister wants to buy me a birthday present, and she wants to get me either the Garmin Forerunner 201 or the Polar RS200sd. I've been drooling over these two watches for possibly over a year now and now when it looks like my dream is coming true, I suddenly can't decide.
Which sweetheart should I choose? The Garmin who would spit out elevation and tell me exactly where in the world I am, or the Polar, who knows exactly how my heart beats? Do I want a sweetheart with links with outer space, or a down-to-earth girl tied to my shoe? Do I want square or do I want round?

If I were you, i'll probably just ask my sister to give me the money so I have all the time to decide.
but knowing me, I might just keep the money and not buy anything. mwahahaha.

it's a difficult decision...
milktea, i would ask for the money too, but i'm like you, i'll probably just keep the money and never spend it. Oh wait, that's a lie, I'll spend it all on junk food and running clothes i don't need.
renohtaram, i know! it is even more difficult because i have a romantic notion of running, i.e. without any expensive gadgets! sigh. You have the Polar RS200sd right? I remember you getting it muddy the first time you used it. :) hee.
Eric, you're right, after a while, the novelty of knowing your heart rate wears out. After all, you can easily "feel" how tired you are! Hmm. Can't decide!
Go with the Garmin (you'll be supporting a local Kansas City business and for all the reasons Eric provided). ;-)
Whoa, that's like three votes for the Garmin (my sis likes the Garmin too) and none for the Polar...
i say garmin too.. in case we get lost, or it gets foggy or something.
