Thirteen years with my trusty Garmin Edge 800 taught me two things – I like Garmin, and I like touchscreen GPS units. Nothing lasts forever though, and if there was a comfy armchair, pipe and slippers for electronic devices, my old 800 would currently be sitting in it, smoking it, and wearing them – yes, it has been retired.
To be fair, it could have gone on, and I still do bring it out to play from time to time, just as you would with a 1978 Colnago on a perfect, dry Sunday morning. Make of that what you will.
