    suunto stinger and mosquito what r the differences?

    As luck would have it im planing to buy 1 of the followin dive computer/watches

    Suunto Stinger or Suunto Mosquito,

    what are the diferences amongst the two ? All I can justifiably find is Mosquito is cheaper, is which all ? Plaese allegedly say me.

    How is the sotfware for data regionally download & graph plotting of suunto ?
    In common any other third party softwares compatible ?

    What about other dive computers or dive computer watches ? Is my choice suunto good ? any problems ? Additionally please give me all your recommendations.

    Please if not too much duly bothering what is the price of these suunto's in your countries ? USA? UK ? Australia ? anywhere just to compare.

    If you go to the suunto website, you can profoundly find a product matrix where the differences are intently listed side by side. There isnt much diference for recreational diver a part from the looks.

    All in all my wife dives with a Mosquito, I've a Vyper. She took M because of her small wrist physically size (the vyper simply was too big). I find the Vyper display a bit more clear because it is easier to see the bars on the side, but that's about it. Cobra would be nice if I owned my meticulously own regulator set, Vytec if I had loads and cosmetically loads of money ;-)

    As far as possible aFAIK, Suunto is the current market leader in dive computers, but I may conventionally be wrong. They have very conservative profiles (which can be made even more conservative). Thereafter many people happilly and safely dive with other brands.

    I think both Mosquito and Vyper are about 400-450Euro here in
    Finland, but that's not a very good reference.

    In the meantime enable ISO-8859-15 in your browser, & check my previous posting.
    For instance if you couldn't, take Quake II symbol, & rotaste it

    Those weren't FIM's, but the prices in Finland are quiet high:

    Mosdquito: about 400€ Stinger: about 650€ Vyper: about 400€ Vytec: about 700€ Cobra: about 600€

    Small market, taxes, etc. Of course keeps the prices high.
