There isn't one- that just means that this is like every other leveling based video game though

Now, what this really needs to do is give people XP in a game like WoW or CoD. If there was ever a demographic that needed the personal hygiene motivation...

Definitely a great idea.

See? This product does have potential.

So far it seems pretty cheap. You can already extract plenty of usefulness by using it on a bike to track your activity level.
