I'm starting to kick up my running to walking ratio, and would like pedmeter suggestions before heading out to buy one. Looking for something lower-moderately priced. Thanks!!
(If this has been covered before, my apologies!!)
Check this site out - Pedometer Reviews - if you scroll down there are several types of pedometers you can choose from. Here's another - Top 10 Picks for pedometers.
I'm also checking out Walk4Life site for a pedometer. I think I found one at walk4life site that works for me. Reviews are also good for it and if you cannot decide which one would be better for you they have a very short questionaire on the left (find the right pedometer) which will help you find one.

It is apparently the best. I just bought one, and it seemed cheap to me at $30 - I love it and find it a lot of fun to see if I can get 10k steps a day!
I use walkertracker.com to keep track of my steps.

I have the Omron HJ-112 too... It's a great pedometer.. It measures steps, calories burned, aerobic steps and distance.
I have a tech4o watch pedometer, it measures everything except for heart rate plus its pink and not bulky. I paid 40 or 60 for this watch and it was worth every penny. It tells you how fast you are walking or running, it measures your exercise and calories burned it does a lot just google it. I got tired of inaccurate waist pedometers, theres nothing more frustrating then walking 3 miles and the waist pedometer says you only walked 300 steps total. the watch pedometers are way more accurate then the waist pedometers or at least thats what I noticed

I have to jump on the Omron bandwagon. I love my HJ-112. I won it on this site a few years ago. And it still works! I have never had a pedometer last more then a few weeks and this one is surprisingly durable, a few drops to the floor and it still works.
