| The first thing you notice is how much bigger the actual screen is on the 800. The 800 is shorter and a bit narrower than the 605. I have the protective silicone sleeve on the 800 so it looks a tad wider in this photo. |

| The 800 has the Topo 24K map card in it, the 605 has the City Navigator map card in it. |

| Notice the "Timer On" label on the 605? I have a tendency to forget to turn it back on after I've stopped for a break. A couple of things I've already noticed about the 800. The mount is lame, I don't like the idea of two Orings securing the mount to the bike. That may be why there are at least 3 after market mounts out there already. The second thing is the on/off button. It's very hard to push it in far enough to feel the click before it powers up or down. Hopefully it will get easier with use. I have high expectations on this new Edge 800, I hope it doesn't let me down. |
