The GPS pod works on and off and eats batteries. I have found the fastest way for it to aquire satellite lock is to take the battery out at the end of each run. If you simply turn the device off it doesn’t recieve the GPS signal the next time you need it. As for the HRM and watch it is what you would expect from Polar but the start/stop button is cheap and I can see that failing first. The averages for speed vary greatly also but for the quick check during a long run it works fine and coupled with the HRM it will keep you honest

I consider myself a beginner when it comes to running. After looking around for several options, I decided to get the Polar RS300X G1 because of its multisport capabilities. I could easily run or ride my bike with it, and I would be able to measure distance and pace with the same device, without having to install/uninstall things to my bike every time I wanted to change excersices. After considering the Garmin 305 I decided to go for the Polar because of the extremely big and uncomfortable size of the Garmin. Everything looked nice in the website, but the story changed after only a few weeks I’ve owned the training computer.
1) The watch itself is incapable of transmitting data to the Polar site (or any other running website) which makes it a little boring for you as a user to log in and “manually” enter your data every time you complete an excersise. I was very sad to know that in order to do this automatically I have to separately purchase an extra device (Polar Flowlink @ $55.00).
2) I have been experiencing some problems with the accuracy of the distance. Since I just got my watch a few weeks ago, I entered in several forums to see if any other user was experiencing what I was going through, and to my unpleaseant surprise, yes… they were. Basically, the battery life of the G1 GPS Sensor is so short that you can only use it for up to 8 hours. More than that and you will start getting incorrect data from your runs. What is the purpose of a GPS sensor if you can get accurate data from it? Now I will have to constantly purchase batteries just to keep my distances correct.
Very sad that Polar hasn’t come with better solutions for this issues. I saw several users unhappy about this same thing in their own web site.

I’ve been using the RS300X since I got it two weeks ago.
The heartrate is very easy to see and use. The GPS works fine, just be aware that if you end up running on trails/trees, it’s going to have some difficulty staying in close contact with so be ready for your time to get a little wacky. I treat the GPS as a tool to use and figure the average is going to be just fine.
