Oh lord do I have some stories there. Way back in the nascent Quantified Self days, I ran http://openyou.org, which was basically "Buttplug for consumer health devices" (I mean I guess Buttplug is Buttplug for a specific type of consumer health device but, well, you get the idea).

There's a god damned heart rate profile standard in the bluetooth spec AND YET I'm not sure I ever actually worked on a device that used it. :|
