It's not a continual light. It is intermittent and turns on when you least expect it and it shocks you into full wakefulness with its blazing intensity! Its not that bad, but it was weird at first.

Whats up with the blazing light when I am trying to go to sleep? I set my watch for sleeping and sometimes the light under the band lights up and normally in the day you dont notice it, but at night its like a terrifying spot light when you least expect it.

Finally got it working. I turned the weather tile off and then turned the watch off. Next I shut my phone off. After I turned my phone back on, I logged onto the weather channels site to make sure it was on my city. After that I turned on my Band and turned on the tile. Then the weather was on...

Tried that and it still gives me the weather from Seattle instead of Detroit.

Been googling and it seems this is an issue for a lot of people. I guess all we can do is wait for an update.

Mine says I am in Seattle, Washington! How do I change that?

Today it says it is 45 and raining whereas looking outside it is sunny and the real temp is in the 20s.

My Band is not saying the same thing as my iPhone 5 weather app. Doesn't the Band just read the iPhones data?

I've run in the rain and done dishes with it. It's water resistant and not water proof.

OMG! It they had sensors, my friends and I would try to get the higher numbers. That would be a bad thing.

I accidentally left mine in exercise mode in the car and had the same super-high heart rates. Crazy. They'll work the bugs out.

Another thing I love about the band is that I have had no technical issues with it. It has run perfectly!

Seriously, every time I use my MS Band, I think of a Pipboy 3000. I wonder how long it will take until these bands can do nearly everything a Pipboy 3000 can? My other dream is using this with my Xbox connect. Maybe the Kinnect can scan my body and face, the MS Band can scan my health and then...

This is my first fitness band. My favorite feature is that it automatically updates my workouts to Run Keeper and then to Loseit. Also it makes me happy when people ask me about it and I can seem all modern and cool for an old guy.

I dont suppose you live in Michigan?
