I'm happy with RS800 but very disappointed with Watchsavings - the amazon's partner.

I live in Brazil and I've received my order at a friend's address in USA. He took it to me and I have a problem: I bought a "1 of Polar RS800G3 Bundle ( Includes S3 Stride Sensor), G3 GPS Sensor, Free IRDA" (order # 104-7005327-9628241) and the S3 Stride does not came in the box. I've just received the RS800, the GPS Sensor and the IRDA. I need to know what happened. I sent an e-mail to Watchsavings 2 weeks ago and they didn't answered me. I'm waiting an answer from AMAZON.COM. Tks, HUGO



Polar RS800G3 Bundle ( Includes S3 Stride Sensor), G3 GPS Sensor, Free IRDA

Bought for my wife's birthday. She's very technical (has MBA and MS/CS degrees), and as an endurance athlete she's become very familiar with Polar and Garmin HRMs and GPS devices over the years - has a Garmin 305, an eTrex Vista, a Brunton GPS, etc.

Well, this device stumped her - she worked with it for an hour and couldn't get the GPS part to sync with the display ... maybe because the quickstart instructions were all in French?

She worked through all the menus and decided that even if she *could* get the thing to function, it was going to be unworkable while riding. And, as delivered it doesn't have everything it needs for connecting to a computer (that's optional). So, we returned it.

Great product. Too bad there is no real marketing to get it out to the public. This is a great training product that can be introduced to the teenagers early on to give them a better training awarness. The transaction went smooth and I was very pleased with the way Amazon brought this together.
