FitLinxx has some products which solve the Scale to PC/Server issue wirelessly <a href="http://www.fitlinxx.com/products_list-pub.html" target="_blank">http://www.fitlinxx.com/products_list-pub.html
They also have a pedometer/accelerometer which also wirelessly connects to a PC via USB. The technology for the pedometer is the same technology used by Nike for the Plus One product, as FitLinxx acquired FitSense, the company from which Nike licensed the +1 technology. Products don't yet seem to be web services or developer friendly, although they may have made progress in that area. Not having been in touch with the company for over a year, I am not sure where they are with that. But FitLinxx/FitSense is a company which has been working for a while on making connections between data and fitness.

As my son and daughter begin a new little league season I am glad to be reminded of this advice I have been known to give them as a coach, which of course contradicts the phrase I also use "Just do your best and have fun."
As long as I am quoting Yoda I have my son's attention...One of the key challenges as a parent/coach and I think as an investor or manager is knowing when to use each of thes e contradictory phrases.
