HRMs

What's the best to buy? I see such mixed reviews for different ones, it's making my head spin! I don't want an HRM where I have to also pay for an online account (I think I read that that's what BodyBugg does.). I was going to go with Polar, but then I read on Amazon, where on of the Polars got bad reviews, that the batteries for them are not user-replacable. You have to pay for an expensive "refill" type battery. Don't want that!!! I don't want to pay too much money for it, either, but I want it to be accurate. I wouldn't mind paying slightly over $100 for one if I knew it was really good. Help, please?

The Polar FT7 that I just got has a user replaceable battery. That was a big factor in choosing it over some of the older Polar models. It was on sale at Amazon for less than 80 dollars when I got it. I've only used it a few times but I like it. Easy to use and program and I really need that stuff to be easy. It also got good reviews at Amazon.
