Comparing Mares Nemo, Suunto Mosquito or D3

I used to be a big fan of Suuntos (we have 8 of their dive computers
in our shop for staff use), but in the 2 years I've had my D9, I've
had to send it back twice. Once, the computer started fogging up on
the inside. The second time, on a repetitive dive to 32m, the blasted
thing decided I was at 196m and kept urging me to ascent to 96m,
beeping for the entire duration of the dive. Grrr. Suunto was nice
enough to replace the unit at no charge both times, but this set the
done.

Incidentally, the very next day after my second D9 fiasco, I took my
old and trusty Vyper out for a dive. Was down to 35m, and on my way
up with about 4 min of deco on the computer. While I was looking at
it, it reset itself - dive time went to 0, nitrogen loading went to 0
and I went from having 4 min of deco to something like 70min on no-
deco time. That was charming as well. That problem hasnt repeated
itself, which, in some ways, is even more worrying.

My wife's Stinger has also been fixed under warranty once.

I still prefer Suunto computers - but I really wish they'd get their
shit together with QC of late.
