On the move

After many purchases of pedometers, and many disappointments, I have finally found one that seems to be, in a word, simply, "fantastic". The wonderful folks at Omron sell the Walking Style II (not sure if there was a I) - which has two major differences from most pedometers: 1) it goes in your pocket or bag (not on your belt), and 2) it's digital (one less thing to clatter/rattle/make noise on my person). Other differences: it doesn't have a reset button for you to push by accident when taking it in and out of your pocket or when it hits against something. As well: it does an automatic reset at midnight. And it has a 7 day memory on each function - steps, aerobic steps, calories etc. All this plus it's not a bad looking piece of equipment - and it's small enough ... to fit in your pocket!
