I'm considering asking for one for a late birthday present, but they all very so much in price with the Link being almost twice the price of the BMF advantage. Does anyone have experience with these? Which? Are you satisfied with them?
They're really expensive, so I want to be really sure before I invest. Thanks for any input you can give!

    I'm almost definitely getting one, I just can't figure out which to get. There is the Link, Advantage and Core... which do you have? What do and don't you like about it?

    I just did a little research and you've sold me on it, haha. From what I can tell, the Armband Advantage is all that would be necessary for me *personally* - I don't need immediate updates on my cell phone or anything. It looks like the Link is good if you want to use your phone/the armband with Bluetooth and have the information sent directly to your phone - is that really necessary? (For me, no. For you, maybe!) And then of course the third one is just a smaller version of the Advantage, looks like.

    I'll probably be buying the Advantage. You can't beat that price.

    Rach- I'm not sure... that's why I'm trying to get some information from people who use them.

    Looks like a good site. Slanted in one direction perhaps

    I have the Advantage. I bought it because it was $99 with a Groupon, and I didn't care about realtime updates. I love it.

    I bought the BodyMedia Link, because Amazon had it for $136 with a $30 coupon, so it was $106, so not much more than a FitBit. I like the display on the FB, but prefer the data that the BM gets.
