at first i wasnt sure
Pros:<br />its pretty cool and worthy of 5 stars<br /><br />Cons to knock it down to 4 stars:<br /><br />1) you HAVE TO OWN A WIRELESS DEVICE to set this up.  Aka a smart phone or ipod etc.  You have to connect your device to the scales wifi port, tell it where your wifi name is, and disconnect.<br /><br />2) the white scale is pretty hard to read.  I have to bend all the way down to read my weight... and you only get like 10 secs to read it before it goes black.  It shows your weight exactly twice before it goes dark.  Im tone deaf.  If it beeps saying its done, I never notice it in the first cycle.<br /><br />3) you dont get the bodyfat readings and such until you log into fitbit and assign the scale to your account.  Then in a couple days you scale starts saying your BF% and your initials.<br /><br />4) you can secretly monitor your roommates weight until they set themselves up on fitbit.com.  All guest weights are shown to the fitbit authorized owner.  Once you invite a friend, they sign up, and you point those guest weights to the friend, the friends weight is hidden for good.<br /><br />Pretty slick device.<br /><br />Wants:<br />network cable support<br />the timer when the scale goes dark to be longer or even configurable
