I find the buttons on my 520 a bit awkward, especially when wearing gloves.
Has anyone tried the garmin remote?
If so, is it any good?
I'd quite like to move between screens without moving my hands from the hoods.

    I've got one, using it with my Garmin Edge 1000. It links up quickly (just press a button at the start of the ride). Works well, although a few times it has stopped working after a couple of hours or so; no idea why. It's held on with a rubber band so is easy to move between bikes.

    I've got one, works fine and connects every time.
    Had it previously on a 510 and that was always dropping it's connection.
