An interesting personal scale, if it can be called in such a limited way, has been put to our attention as a nifty present for the health conscious and gadget obsessed man in your family. The device claims to provide accurate muscle mass and body fat numbers for each arm and leg, in addition to the body on the whole. And these and other numbers can be tracked via a graph screen on the top of the unit.
Our new father is planning to review the device hands on (feet on?) in the coming days to see if one needs to know Fortran to operate this thing.
