http://www.woot.com/ It looks to be a new version of the pro-form. I have the old one and LOVE it! I bought one of these today cause it says that it measures speed and distance now too. Its worth the $25 to try it out. :-D

    I really, really want to buy this, but just cannot justify it right now. Why couldn't they put it up in 2 weeks? Maybe they might. Oh, well. Have fun with yours.

    Got mine today, and can't get the heart rate to work. Buyer beware, I will be calling customer service in the morning. It tells time real well though.

    Figured it out, they ask you to moisten the leads. I was getting the hard black plastic thing that hold the electronics moist instead of the rubbery parts next to it. Unit works great now, and I am happy. A buddy of mine told me to actually use a little vaseline and then you don't have to do it over and over again.

    This particular unit is pretty complex, it does a lot, but it takes time to learn all that it can do. I saw it for 19.99 shipped on Ebay (even cheaper than reported here). I would recommend it now, for anyone who is comfortable programing digital watches. If you are not comfortable programing the clock in your car or digital watches, this is not the unit you should get.

    Glad to hear it!
