I think I will stick with my old mask, snorkel and tank for now.

Looks interesting. May have to try is.

My wife has a center "swimmers" snorkel she uses in the pool.

We took a trip to the BVI last december and the other couple brought some of those masks. They are very nice for snorkeling at the surface, since you can't reach your nose, you can't clear the pressure in your ears so diving down any significant depth is out of the question. My wife, with no snorkeling experience enjoyed hers. I tried both and very much prefered the traditional mask and snorkel.
