I haven't re-enabled the text notifications since I moved over to an iPhone but here is a pic from the internets (caution, picture appears to be written in metric):

Ah yes, Switzerland. That looks large enough for me to read with my old man eyes.

Just realized the 530 came out. Might pick one of those up if I can sell my bike this week.

I might pick up a Garmin unit at some point. I like their integration.

I'm currently using a Polar m430 HRM+GPS. I'm happy with it -- even though it's wrist-based HRM, it works very well and the GPS receiver not only gets a near-immediate lock, but creates the most accurate GPS tracks I've seen from various receivers (phones, three different Garmin units, etc). It can also use a chest strap monitor, but I haven't needed that yet.

All that said, I do like the Garmin cycle computers.
