I can't speak for Morton's Neuroma myself, but my plantar fasciitis was totally cured with good orthotics. If you happen to be in the Portland, OR area I can send you my podiatrist's contact info.

I chose the Flex because I'm a paddler, and I live in the rainy Northwest, so it has to be waterproof. I would have liked the watch and altitude options, but waterproof was a deal breaker.
