Well apparently they have a new version out of the bodybugg , but the version I have is the one shown in the picture. Oh the bodybugg..... Well I will start off telling you where I got it. I bought my bodybugg from QVC. The cost was $253.90. It came with the armband, the display and a 12 month subscription to the bodybugg website. After shipping and taxes my total came to $285.90.
