Anyone in Australia got a bodybugg? If so where did you get it and how much?

Hi Nat,

just found this thread while I was trying to find info on how to get a bodybugg.

I just emailed the company to ask if they have an Australian distributor. If not, I'm interested in knowing what sort of support they offer international purchasers.

Seeing how the Aussies $ is pretty strong atm, it's a good time to buy I reckon. I would be happier if they had a point of sale here in Oz though, just for after sales support etc.

I have seen them on Ebay @ $179.00 + 3 months subscription, US dollars I think.

CalorieKing.com.au - Australian Online Diet and weight loss club. Lose weight for good! will be keeping track for me and that costs only $44. They have a huge data base of foods and exercise values showing how much you have used daily and how much you have left.

I got an email reply from them saying they do not provide tech support to Australian users at the moment, but I can still buy it if I wanted, I just won't have all the whiz bang support that the US users would have, but will still have to pay for. They also mention that it's wireless and therefore may contravene allowed radio frequencies in some countries (though they do later say that they have happy customers in Australia, so who knows?)

So I'm less interested now. I think if it accurately measured calories burned, I could track the rest using Fitday or CalorieKing, but is it worth the money just for that one aspect?
