Does this one have an option to automatically switch sports within a workout or race (for a triathlon, for example)? I don't want to be fiddling with a lot of buttons during my tri transitions.

Scouter124You can add custom multi-sport modes through the Movescount site.

Scouter124As far as I can tell, while there is a multi-sport mode, you have to hold the lap button for around 2 or 3sec to change sports within the multi-sport mode, there is no way to get it to change automatically after a set time or distance or change in some other variable.
Multi-sport mode seems to be quite versatile and you can set up just about any combination of sports including transition periods (which can do whatever you want, its just another sport mode which you happen to call 'transition' so recording things like gps and heart rate while transitioning isn't a problem).
The max sport modes you can include in a multi-sport mode is 6. There is a default tri-multi-sport (which you can modify on the website) and the ability to create and store up to 2 other multi-sport modes on the watch.
Disclamer: I'm not into tri, so my experience with actually using the multi-sport mode is fairly limited... I've played around with it but not done a race or anything using it.
