**** Pictures of things we bought in August 2012 ****

Just wanted to test the camera out on the galaxy tbh. Better than my iPhone 4 at least.

That Aquacoach looks pretty cool.

I got the fuelband as I wear a watch all the time so I can wear it on my other wrist and it just looks like one of those charity bracelets. Plus it works with what I do mainly which is running :)

Does it not act like a watch and tell you the time as well?

I really like the look and idea of these, but unfortunately they are not fully waterproof from what I have read and I enjoy swimming.

Hopefully a new version will be out in the next year or so which will cater for swimmers.
 
Yeah you can use it as well as a watch but I like always wearing an actual watch anyway so don't really use that feature.

I don't get why they haven't made it fully waterproof either it seems like such a big omission given what it does. Thankfully I swim like a brick so again it's not a biggie for me :p

Garmin Swim looks a bit better than the speedo:

Hmm, I'd like to take features from both... Ideally it would be nice if you could program in target sets/sessions etc... and it could give you length times etc.. on those sets...

I like that the garmin has wireless downloads but I like the calorie calculation on the Speedo... Not sure which I'd pick :S

This pretty much somes it up. With all of the bits of info it displays it does motivate you to do stuff to hit the 'goals'. It does also seem pretty accurate with it's readings.

I got one as I'm a sucker for this kind of thing and thought it looked cool. I think the real test will be if I'm still using it properly in a month or so and the novelty has worn off.

You could keep using it as a watch that incessantly nags you throughout the day to "meet deadlines" :D
