Has anyone picked up and used the EASA 2.0 (Wii, PS3, x-Box 360)? I've been hanging around and stalking the Boards to see if there were any reviews. I absolutely loved the First iteration and the More Workouts, and then I messed up my knees (mild case of osteoarthritis) and had to go gentle with Fit Plus.
I'm interested in how folks find the 2.0. I love EASA brand because I can get and keep my Fasting Blood Glucose numbers below 100 and my A1c (Type II Diabetic) under 6.0 when I use those products.
In the EASA 2.0 you don't have to use the nunchuk (Wii version); but for some exercises you need the Wiimote.

How do you find EASA2?
I heard the review for Kinect was horrible, ...I hope the sales for EASA2 is encouraging...
I have the Wii and I have no problems. There is a lot of user error because people are not using the HRM and or tracker properly. They either have it upside down or placed on the forearm instead of below the elbow. The leg tracker has to be high on the thigh, but not too high and dead center. It has to be able to detect when you leg is bent, squatting or straight and if it is too high, it can't tell.
There are people who have the Kinect who are finding no problems with EASA2. I don't know if it is a computer issue with the Kinect, user error, a bug or bugs in EASA2, but there are those who have no issues and those who can not seem to get it off the ground. Kinect takes a large enough room, must perform the exercises at least 6.5/7 feet from whatever tracks you. The camera needs to be mounted high enough to get the entire you into its sights from the jumping (mountain biking) to getting on the floor for ab work. Also you have to turn off the voice recognition feature as it will pick up ambient noise and gets confused. You have to have good lighting, so you can be clearly detected, but not too bright, and the wall behind you should be painting in a light color (white, pastel, etc.). There are WEB sites dedicated to designing your room to work best with a Kinect.
