Tue, 08 Mar 2011 05:05:13 +0000 http://protreadmillreviews.com/?p=806#comment-2703 Thanks for the honest review. I'm not at all put off by the Sole F85 not having all those interactive programs. Nordic Track is providing Internet access and a Google map connection to program their treadmill. I'm not impressed with any of that. A simple console that's easiy to program and let me run a custom workout is all I need. Competition being what it is, I'm sure Sole will be forced to get into the electronic play toys. I'd love to see a study on how much those items are actually used (I bet not much). But since buying decisions are made based on these features, I'm sure Sole will be forced to catch up. For my part, I like the solid tank-like feel of the F85 and the knowledge that it is going to give me years and years of daily service despite how my family may abuse it.
