Hey Gong, great to hear from you ... the Up folks were having some hardware trouble earlier, but looks like they're back on track and talking about having a developer API ready soon (and folks have been hacking their internal one already!) ... we'll keep watching and hopefully will see some connectivity there too. Totally agree it's a pretty sweet piece of hardware.

Fantastic! This is something I've been needing for a long time - so much so I almost ended up writing something similar myself being a Garmin and HealthVault fan.

To me this shows the value of the ecosystem and also of Open APIs. Now HealthVault can be my store for Health, Wellness and Fitness data.

What about Jawbone Up? Their web service may be quite rudimentary if not none existing, but their hardware is way cool.
