Matt Cutts has the same pedometer. I agree with him, although it'd be even better if these devices could connect and upload data to my computer (and to the cloud) automatically via Bluetooth or WI-FI w/o having to remove it from my bag at all.
Quoted: Now I just wish every health device could connect to a computer. Omron offers a blood pressure monitor that also connects to your computer using the same software as the pedometer (it’s all seamless). I’ve tried it, and the blood pressure monitor works well. If Omron ever offered a scale that connected to a computer, I’d immediately get one of those, too. :) In the meantime, I’m not aware of any other pedometers or blood pressure monitors that connect to a computer, so it’s a good thing that they’re both solid products. :)

Device Driver to connect my pedometer with Microsoft HealthVault.
UPDATE: So far, the main benefit I can see (which is a useful benefit) is that it uploads the info to the cloud. HealthVault, unlike Omron's software, doesn't have any particularly interesting ways to visualize my walking data.
Quoted: Omron pedometers are tested, evaluated and proven to consistently provide accurate results with rigorous attention to safety.

2 FaversViewed: 13 TimesQuoted: I have a picture in my head of what the average entrepreneur is like. I’d guess pretty young (think Facebook, Twitter, Google, etc.) living the red beans and rice lifestyle and working 80+ hours a week and sleeping under their desk. On some parts, I’m probably right — but on many, I’m flat-out wrong.
