In addition add the new Alladin Air X.  I saw one of these at the Southampton
Boat Show - The booth staff did not know much but I managed to get a look at
the Manual - its air integrated with radio (?) transmitter from the HP - No
hose as the transmitter screws into the first stage.  The wrist display looks
like a wider Alladin, which displays the same info as the old Alladin Pro.  The
Air display is under the main display.  The Air X seems to have the computer
interface in the unit as standard as it looked like you only needed a cable to
download info.  The manula showed diags of dive profiling - I did not get to
see what sample rate etc

Also it has a new ascent rate of 7ms.

I was suprised the unit is air only (rumours had been that it was going to be
Nitrox as well) - Thats all I could get as they wanted the manual back  The
last bit of info was the cost 600 UK pounds (ouch!)

Obviusly no dive experience with it - has anybody alse out there seen one/dived
with one ???
