    Does it track heart rate? Been thinking about getting one but I don't want to have to buy it AND an hrm. I can't seem to find out for sure if it has that feature

    I LOVE mine as well, I have the LINK version that syncs to my phone. It doesn't show you a HR but IMHO it tells you more accurately what you burn is during a set exercise and for the day.

    No it does not track heart rate. I think the Body Media is more accurate anyway. I do have a hrm that I use too but mostly to make sure I'm in the right workout zones. I have the Link version and for those wondering, there are specific hrm that will work with the Body Media. Here are some questions and answers from the help link from the website.

    How is heart rate data used in the Activity Manager?

    The heart rate data imported from your Garmin device is used to display heart rate data in the BodyMedia FIT dashboard. Heart rate data is not exported or included in BodyMedia reports or algorithms. You can only import and display heart rate data from your Garmin device. The system does not upload GPS or calorie information from your Garmin device.

    Which devices can I upload heart rate data from?

    The Heart Rate feature should be compatible with any heart rate monitor supported by the Garmin Communicator Plugin. This list of devices may be updated frequently as Garmin releases new products. Note that the Garmin Communicator Plugin is currently known to have problems with Forerunner 110 model.

    Devices that have been officially tested by BodyMedia for the Heart Rate integration into the Activity Manager: Forerunner 60 (aka FR60), Forerunner 305, Forerunner 610, Edge 305.

    Who has access to the beta version of Heart Rate Monitor data upload feature?

    Select users have access to the beta version of the Heart Rate Feature. To see if you have access, go to the Settings tab. If Heart Rate is not an option, you do not have access to this feature at this time.
