HRM advice

I'm going to go purchase a HRM tomorrow at some point, but I'm still trying to decide what kind to get. I know I need one with a chest strap and I'm not huge on booting up my computer to download a bunch of data. I'm simply interested in one that I can wear during my workout, take it off, and have it tell me how many calories I burned. Nice and simple. What kind of HRMs are you guys using and do they seem to fit what I'm looking for?

My Polar has a chest strap and watch - it DOES have the plug into computer function (if you buy the seperate cable) but it also has the in-watch display. It stores data indefinitely and I've been using it daily (sometimes twice daily) for about 2 months now without deleting anything.
I don't plan on using the computer bit because everything is right there on the watch!0 -
Best deal you'll find - Polar is GREAT!

I have the New Balance N4 that was highly recommended from people in here and I love it. It has the chest strap, but does not plug into the computer. It only stores 9 work outs at a time, but I only need that one.0

Polar FT7 is what I have and it has been great so far in the past 2 months that I've owned it. It was definitely worth the money!0

I'm glad to hear the new balance N4 works well. I'm really trying to save money these days and that seems to be very reasonable. I think that's what I'm going to go for. Thanks guys!0
