Help with Forerunner 305

I got a Garmin Forerunner 305 with cadence/speed sensor for christmas. I used it outdoors once and it sync'ed perfectly. And the first 3-4 times I used it, the speed was comparable with my Blackburn Delphi 4.0 with wireless speed sensor (+/- 0.2 mph), but from the 5th time using it, the speed of the Forerunner has been ~2.0mph slower.

I've been using it indoors mostly, so GPS has been turned off. Bike circumference was auto-calibrated at 2096mm (comparable to 2090mm for 700x23 tires). There are no speed dropouts seen on the garmin training center software. GPS has been fully charged before each use.

I initially questioned the blackburn computer, but the speeds matched for the first few uses, then something seems to have changed?

I'm kinda at a lost of what else to try. Any suggestions?
