I have had a number of these fitness trackers and really think this is the best one out there. There are a number of great features that are not listed on best buy's site too.
Auto Sleep is a feature not mentioned. If you are actually looking to track your sleep habits this is a must. I have tried using others that require you to put it into sleep mode, but most of the time would just forget, or fall asleep before.
Running Mode works just like some of Garmin's more costly watches.
In addition to tracking your heart rate during workouts, it will also track your resting heart rate. This is a great way to get a feeling for your overall fitness improvements.
Fit file format. So depending on where you want to share your data (strava, training peaks or other traditional fitness/ training program) Garmin's file format is more often compatible with them over other fitness trackers.
Overall, I love it!
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: durable, low cost, tricks
What's not so great: short battery life
I really like this Quad-Copter. Very durable. The controls take a little time to learn, but within 10 min I was fine. Battery life is a little short, but still very usable. I get about 10 min of flight time.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What happens after the 2 years of cloud storage is up?

It says Google drive provides 100 GB of cloud storage for 2 years. After the two years, would I be able to access whatever I have stored in it. Or would I need to move everything to an external hard drive before the two years is up?
When you cancel your storage plan or when your storage plan expires, your storage limits will be set back to the free levels for each product at the end of your billing cycle. Everything in Google Drive, Google+ Photos, and Gmail will still be accessible, but you won't be able to create or add anything new over the free storage limit.

Are you able to use itunes on the Chromebook?

This is a new computer concept to me. Will I still be able to download my music?
