Well the aim is to use running to help me with the agoraphobia, ive been walking a lot more recently but i used to enjoy running. I'm hoping that running will help me, but it's not something i can just jump into.

The first 2 come without a HR strap but the men's watch comes with it. That one costs about £115 ish (sometimes a touch less) and the other 2 are around £90. I bought the unisex one then found the HR straps on ebay for £15 so I bought one and saved myself some cash.

Ive read about fore runner, im only really looking for a heart rate monitor, id be happy to use an app for GPS for example. I forgot the Nike+ needs the monitor as well, so i wont get that after what you said.
I will probably end up going with the forerunner like you said. I read that you take your age and knock that off 200, and thats what your heart rate should be when running, but i dont know if thats true or not and i might be completely wrong, i read something somewhere. but with the Nike+ it alerts you if you go over a certain bpm, thats one of the reasons i liked it. but the forerunner does that also.
