Oh, I didn't realize that the i750TC was yet another clone of that same
dive computer. Usually these rebranded devices do in fact behave the same
way.

That would be great. Linus actually has an Aeris 300CS sitting around
somewhere. Once his hobby project isn't taking up as much of his time
anymore (merge window closes) I hope he'll have more time again to devote
to the project that really matters (Subsurface). Actually, kidding aside,
I am impressed that he responded to requests and fixed bugs in Subsurface
and libdivecomputer in the middle of the kernel merge window this time
around. Without his work we still would have no BLE support...
