I'm looking into getting a bluetooth compatible heart rate monitor. The two I have looked into so far:

Polar Wearlink+ Bluetooth

Zypher HxM

From reviews I've read, the Polar's major downside is battery life. However, it is currently the only one that works w/ Cardiotrainer, the app that I currently prefer to use on my phone.
Zypher has a USB rechargeable battery and overall very good reviews, but I would have to use a different app for now (eventually Cardiotrainer may support it, it has an open platform).

Am I missing any other good options?? Anybody love or hate the options I've already presented?

    Also, they are both about the same price ($70 - $75).

    Did you pull the trigger on one of these? I use CardioTrainer a well and love it, and would like to get a bluetooth HRM to use with it or with an equally good app.

    I have the Wahoo BlueLE strap that I use with myfitness apps. Would think the polar Bluetooth would work as well.
