I am looking to get myself a new pedometer. Need ideas!! Which is the best, most reliable and I like the ones that are not to noisy. The click, click of most pedometers drives me just a little crazy. Help?

    I have an Omron Walking Style pedometer & love it (not able to use it now due to ankle injury) because it tells me everything that I need to know.
    Steps taken
    Calories burned
    Distance Walked
    I got it at WalMart & it wasn't that expensive compared to the many choices out there.
    My only complaint is how quickly it goes thru batteries because it doesn't have an "off" button.

    I have an Omron HJ-112 Digital Pocket Pedometer . It works better than any of the other cheap ones I had previously.

    I love my omron, it syncs with my computer and does cool graphs. It also keeps track of continuous steps, and recors them seperately. Love it.

    I also have the Omron from WalMart. It is digitial and I like the fact you can put it in your pocket. Although, it doesn't work so well immediately after you put it through the wash cycle. :laugh: It did dry out in rice for 2 days and works just fine!!

    I have a pedometer app on my iPod touch. Not altogether sure I trust it's distance readings, as it seems to vary wildly. However it is useful for calories burnt and times.:happy:

    i have the omron hj-720itc and love it!! I have had mine for a few years and no complaints. i love that i can download the info from it to my pc and that it keeps track of how many aerobic steps I have taken, distance, etc.
