[Public-List] Wind Meters - what is good?

[elyse.pastor at sympatico.ca]

Hello to all of you,
I want to purchase a wind meter that will help me setting the sails and deciding about reefing and changing the jib. I found two products that look very similar and that I like. I wanted to ask if anybody has some experience with them and if you could recommend one over another. 
The products I have considered are:
Skymate (arround $100) measures Windspeed and temp
Windmate 200 (arround $140) measures windspeed; direction; temp; wind chill
Kestrel 2000 (arround $90) windspeed; temp; wind chill
I have not seen or touched any of them - only seen on paper.
Thanks for any advise
With best regards

PS: the only benefit of the Kestrel over the others I see is that it is water proof (not just resistant).
