. . . one more thing . . .

The Garmin's back lighting is very cleverly designed, and I find it very useful.

I set mine to be on steady (so it doesn't turn off after 15 seconds or so). You can raise or lower the brightness. At night, I set mine on low, and can read the numbers with a short glance at anytime.

I find that turning on the Cateye's back light is awkward, and, once on, I cannot easily or quickly read the numbers through that uneven, green illumination. Additionally, the light goes out after 5 seconds or so . . . totally useless to me.
