I'll have to check the price, but I might buy one of these.
So yes, maybe not *everything*, but on this, yeah. It's not like you don't have other options for a scale if you *don't* want wifi.

Obviously you like and know allot about videogames, but know nothing about cars and just go to those sites to chime in. What chick on earth talks about wireless video game adapters? none, thats who.
Dude, how much do you get paid when people click through to that dating site?]]>Nov 17th 2009 7:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/Nov 17th 2009 8:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/
BTW why is it limited to three people? I would think five is a far more thoughtful choice.]]>Nov 18th 2009 9:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/Nov 17th 2009 5:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/Nov 17th 2009 5:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/Nov 17th 2009 5:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/Nov 17th 2009 5:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/Nov 17th 2009 6:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/Nov 17th 2009 5:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/Nov 17th 2009 5:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/Nov 17th 2009 5:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/Nov 17th 2009 5:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/Nov 17th 2009 6:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/Nov 17th 2009 6:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/Nov 17th 2009 6:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/Nov 17th 2009 6:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/Nov 17th 2009 7:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/
However, what I don't like about it is the closed nature of the service and the device. You can look at your graph on-line or you can twitter it. There's no way to have the scale connect to a local application (if you just want the data on your PC), and the data isn't available as an RSS feed. I don't think you can even export it.

To be honest, what I'd really like is a scale with Bluetooth built in that my phone and my PC can connect to. That would be easier to set up, would get even better battery life, and wouldn't become obsolete when the manufacturer moves on to bigger and better things.]]>Nov 17th 2009 7:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/
It turned out that the fault was a firmware problem, but the lack of information meant a lot of needless fiddling with the scale and the router.]]>Nov 17th 2009 7:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/Nov 18th 2009 6:02AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/Nov 17th 2009 7:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/Nov 17th 2009 8:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/Nov 17th 2009 8:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/switched-on-where-the-withings-are/
