    But I do appreciate the lovely attempt at maximizing the passive-aggressive nature of your post - well done! :drinker:
    The approbation is gratefully received.

    Don't waste your money on a Fitbit. Mine broke with very little use...

    Broke how?? I've only had mine for a little over 3 weeks...

    I've had my Fitbit zip for 2 years now and it works just like the first day I got it! I did have to purchase a new sleeve/clip for it about 1 month ago, but that was to be expected with daily use.

    I'm curious to see if the heart rate monitor on the Jawbone Up3 works better than the Charge, it's a different technology.

    If they ever release it that is.

    I just purchased the Polar a300 and I love it!!! I haven't figured out if it does steps yet...I'm sure it does but I'm still figuring the ins and outs! But it is amazing!!!

    I got a Garmin vivofit for around $95 from target on Feb 1st of this year. I wear it the entire day. It is water proof. Tracks total steps taken, converts it to miles, calorie burned, tracks sleep which I really don't care for. I like the weekly challenge it puts me in, which motivates me to get that many steps in by the end of the week. To me it's like a watch, shows time & date on the screen. Pretty easy to operate. I love the look & feel of it.

    I'm so glad to hear you love it! I just purchased mine yesterday and am waiting for it to get delivered tomorrow. I'm sure I'm going to have a bit of a learning curve as well, but I'm super excited.

    The vivofit is GREAT and I used one for six months. Needed more to be able to step up some. Got a Polar M400 and it is one awesome device.
