I do a variety of exercises including Wii dancing and other outdoor activities. While I do wear a heart strap for many of them, some of them can be tricky with a heart strap. So I was very interested in what the Mio Drive heart rate monitor watch offered.

The Omron HJ-720ITC Pocket Pedometer keeps track of up to 42 days of activity - on an hour by hour basis! Connect it to your PC and get a great running total of your walking exercise. I love this thing!

The Sportline 360 Fitness Pedometer is an easy to use hip-clip pedometer with a flip-down interface. While it should be a great little unit, various flaws keep it from being useful.
