Oceanic Launches New VT3 Wireless Dive ComputerOceanic have launched a new wireless dive computer. Interestingly the technology used in the VT3 allows you to not only monitor your own air supply via the display on your wrist, but also your buddy, so long as they are using the same system, obviously. Here are some details from the press release;

Highlighted by a polished stainless steel housing keeper, this elegantly designed PDC is all about quality, from the feel of the operating buttons to the sharp, crisp display.
