Joule (model without GPS) here for $99:

It looks like Cateye is having some growing pains but it is nice to see them get into this market. They seem to have supported their other products well over the years. I hope they get the issues with the GPS worked out.
Joule is $99 w/o HRM. With HRM, it's $180. Unclear whether you get HRM functionality for $99. I've asked for clarification. $127 for the Cateye is good, too. I have a query in to both manufacturers as to reception range for captain. Will report.

It bothers me that Cateye estimates 300 recharges before battery failure, but doesn't show a replacement battery. The coin cell on the Joule might be preferable.

Thanks for your help.
