Even though there are plenty of devices in this "smart watch" category, I'm listing devices that track at minimum heart rate and temperature. Here is my list, if you know of more, please...

    Tracking Software For Temp, Pulse And Nearly Everything Else

    Here is a neat little tool I have been using to check my pulse. Put one hand on your pulse, the other on the spacebar, and tap the spacebar to the beat of your pulse. I am pretty good at it now so it only takes 4 or 5 taps to get a good reading. :dance http://www.all8.com/tools/bpm.htm

    97.7, Peating To The Nth Degree, Fun With Thermometers

    Well 98.6 is my current temp. Whats yours? Think about if every time someone posted they started their post with their current temp what a fantastic sampling we could create.
