>Do any of the nitrox computers coming onto the market allow a mid-dive gas
>>switch from air to nitrox at the deco stop ?

Not at the moment. You must either use custom tables or follow your air
computer's deco schedule, using nitrox/O2 for extra safety. An alternative
is 2/3 of the stop times suggested by the air tables, but this should only
be done in an emergency if you don't have access to custom tables.

>I can't see me taking a laptop computer out in an inflatable boat

Laptops are turning into palmtops. My tables come out of an Apple Newton.
