    Another HR monitor query

    I'm in the market for a very simple HR monitor. All I want to know is my current HR and calories used during exercise.

    I was very interested in this but it looks like it needs a chest strap, which almost doubles the price.

    Does anyone know of a simple model that is wrist-only?

    Personally I would find placing 2 fingers on it to register HR a pain..but that's me.

    I have a Mio. It works great, except I never remember to touch the buttons.
