Do you have back or knee problems? If so, you might want to compare the fit and shape of the bicycle. A more recumbent bike (where you sit like a chair) will be easier on your back. A bike where you lean forward more will allow you to go faster and get a better workout but it undoubtedly puts more strain on the lower back. I personally prefer more recumbent bikes.
Also, the knee should never be straight, always bent even all the way around when you pedal. There's a good picture of this in the link below.

• Heart Rate Monitor?
  Take a look at the Omron HR 100C heart rate monitor. It is one of the best selling heart rate monitors on Amazon. It is quite inexpensive at around $30 on Amazon and delivery is free. The Omron comes with a chest strap and a wrist watch. It is popular for people using a heart rate monitor for the first time.

• Bike computers?
  Check out the cyclocomputers on Nashbar.com. They always have something going on. I have always liked Cateye. They have been around forever. I still use the wired computer I got back in the early 80s. Nashbar has the Cateye CC-HR200DW (heart rate/wireless) on sale for $140, or if you want to splurge, the Garmin GPS is less than $200. I have a separate GPS unit I can use for other things besides biking, but it is nice to have a all-in-one unit. Just knowing the elevation is helpful. The things you list that are necessary to you, you can get for around $40+ (regular price) or $25+ (on sale). Good luck.
