Your next decision is... Which one? The Series 2 is good, the Series 3 is 
better and has the option of a cellular connection, and the Series 4 should 
arrive this fall sometime. If you can wait, I'd suggest holding out for the 
next generation. If you love it, great, you have the latest. If you're okay 
with a Series 3 or 2 even with the 4 available, great, you can likely get one 
at a discount.
