      A new Band update went out this week. Android users with Cortana can now integrate the two with Band.
      http://www.informationweek.com/healthcare/mobile-and-wireless/microsoft-band-2-update-offers-android-support-for-cortana/d/d-id/1325792

      Also, a neat article that compares a lot of the fitness trackers out there.
      http://www.gizmodo.co.uk/2016/06/the-best-fitness-trackers-fitbit-blaze-microsoft-band-2-moov-now-and-more/

      One of the features I'll be using later today on the treadmill is Heart Rate Zones.
      http://www.windowscentral.com/microsoft-band-2-grabs-new-heart-rate-zones-feature-latest-update

      Anyway, just wanted to throw some new information out there for this thread. The Band gets updated about every 3 weeks with a new feature. I have a Google alert setting to email me on Fridays about anything Band related so I can stay apprised of the happenings on my wrist, be it a future feature or something that's just happened (I already knew about the Cortana integration since I've updated already).

        This has been fixed. However I am never trying it again (still have a mark on my wrist). So I found a sucker, er um, person to use it instead, aka @scottalanmiller

        I am very happy with my FitbitHR.

            I paid for my starbucks today by letting them scan my band.

            This first time I did that I got the same reaction that I got when I paid for lunch with my phone at McDonalds - utter confusion.

            But that is because they had never seen a Windows Phone be useful before.

            I just spit out my drink!

                Not to make light of @Minion-Queen 's injury, but this song loop is stuck in my head:

                "Me watch on fiyah

                Me wrist in fiyah

                Feeling hot, hot, hot!"

                Thank you, I'll be here all week.....

                      I saw @Nic using his apple watch and I was only a little envious that it turns on when he looks at it. I have to push a button to see the time.

                          The updates to watchOS announced this week are pretty nice sounding.

                            I have not heard them. But the Apple Watch updated today when I set it up. So many I got some of them?

                              you do? I don't. MS Band 2, there's a setting for showing time when twisting your wrist.

                                Fitbit Charge does that too. It's pretty nice.

                                  I'm still getting used to the Apple Watch but so far it seems pretty good.

                                    So many people on twitter complaining that the Apple Watch has burned them. You are not alone @Minion-Queen

                                          I accidentally left the Apple Watch at my dad's last week. Just got back to his place tonight and got it back. I've missed it. Once you get used to one, you don't like to be without it.
