So while it’s a fun read and I do recommend it for light reading–I also definitely want to have a disclaimer saying “Remember, it’s fantasy! No girl should EVER let a boy control your life or make you feel basically suicidal if you’re not together.”

Unfortunately, after some experimentation, I’ve found that it is not nearly as accurate under most conditions as the less expensive Accusplit. If you’re walking with very deliberate steps and at a steady, moderate pace, it should be pretty accurate. But if you are walking more slowly and stopping intermittently – still with definite steps, but less forceful, the kind of walking you might experience doing housework for instance, or walking from room to room – it doesn’t seem to be too accurate. Wearing both the Omron and the Accusplit, I counted 500 steps as I moved around doing various chores. The Accusplit undercounted 5 steps. The Omron undercounted by 88!

Also, in jogging it loses a good many steps. It is more accurate if clipped on my belt than in my pocket when moving around a good bit, but is still lacking in accuracy either way. With the Omron and the Accusplit clipped to my belt, I jogged 209 steps. The Accusplit undercounted by 2, the Omron by 14.

Two other negatives – it seemed to be a little on the bulky side, especially with the clip attached; and there doesn’t seem to be anyway to reset the step counter. It resets automatically at midnight, which is a nice feature, but I would like the option to also be able to reset manually depending on what I’m measuring.

I decided to return this one and stick with the good old mechanical Accusplit. I just need something that’s more accurate at counting different kinds of walking.
Bell Edge Spiked Bike

I have owned and used lots of bike racks and have always viewed the Bell brand as the department store brand. I made a trip from Florida to Michigan and back using this Bell bike-rack. It worked like a charm and did not leave any dents, smudges or damage to the van. The only thing I would like to see different in the rack is for the arms to be adjustable. On this rack the arms lock into one position. The slope of the rear window will dictate the angle of the arms. My van ’s window is almost vertical which laves the arms horizontal. You would like to see the arms slightly angled. Nevertheless it worked find. I only carried two bikes a mountain bike and a beach cruiser. Very good quality and for the price it cannot be beat. The cable lock also is a very nice feature.
