    Just ordered one last night. I ordered off Amazon.com as the prices even with shipping and duty seems to be lower than stores in Canada. I order the Omron HR-100C. Was highly rated on Amazon. Haven't used it yet obviously so don't know how easy to use.

    My polar monitor is about ten years old but still going strong. They are easy to use and compatible with most gym equipment.

    I love my Bodybugg - and it's worked wonderfully since I got it 8 weeks ago! Chalene Johnson explains it best... http://powderblueproductions.com/, then go to Chalene's Workout, then click on Calories Burned.

    What I did NOT expect was all the nifty graphs and the such it shows me ... it's awesome for a graph/Excel nerd. :-)

    Yep. I like it better than the FT7. Ordered the FT7 turned around and sold it on Ebay.
