Subject: Re: www.wal-mart.com Has a talking dive computer!
I guess some people lead rather sheltered lives.  This is the Mares
DiveMate, and I've been using one for 6 years now.  Made by the Finnish
company BENEMEC.  I don't think Mares sells it any more, but Orca has
picked up the line, and added a Nitrox version.  I guess Wal_mart picked up
some old stock.  This is the only piece of equipment I have used
consistently for 6 years, and it's never failed, never been serviced.  An
oddity for dive computers.

Not very common, to be sure.  Fantastic to have with you when your hands
are full of camera gear.  Plus, she has a sweet voice.

There's nothing remarkable about it.  All one has to do is hit the right
keys at the right time and the instrument plays itself.  - Johann Sebastian
Bach.
