Torn: Weather station recommendations?

So I decided for my birthday coming up, I'd like a decent weather station for our house. My dad gave me one for Christmas a couple years ago, this Oregon Scientific one which has brought great joy and laughter because of it's "forecasting" feature. Yeah, when it's 110^o outside and the thing says it's raining in the middle of a California (no humidity) summer, laughter ensues. Really, I check the indoor and outdoor temps all the time, because I'm a total weather geek. It works for what we need it for. The barometric pressure is pretty accurate as well.
But I'd really like one that's a little more...professional.

My requirements before I began looking were:

Must be
-Wireless
-Have a decent forecasting feature
-Measure windspeed and rainfall
-Able to plug into a computer and download data
(and therefore able to store data on the module)
-Have some kind of included software program
-Be highly reviewed by internet users

So we started looking at weather stations, and this is where I just got frustrated.

The two I really like, and their pros and cons...

Oregon Scientific WMR100
Pros: Inexpensive (~$180), and easily upgradeable with additional pieces from OS. Product has good reviews from consumers.
Cons: Doesn't store data. You'd need to connect it to a Meteohub server for real time streaming data if you don't plan to keep your computer on all the time to collect data (and additional $229!!). And then I can't even tell if you'll be able to access your historical weather data!

Davis Vantage Pro 2
Pros: Best reviewed product on market. What the pros use. Can accurately predict frosts. 2 1/2 second refresh rate.
Cons: Expensive. You have to build it piece by expensive piece. My build out is over $800! And you have to buy the software ($150) separately. And the software sucks.

There is only a handful of companies that make these things, and none of them have a model that will take a Flash card or other storage medium!? Or have the ability to store data for a period of time without buying an effing server?

What I really want is historical weather data for my property. I work with electrical meter data all day long, and have access to historical data, and therefore expect the same from something I'm about to drop a wad of cash on for my house. Maybe that's my problem - I have too high of expectations and I don't fit the 3 kinds of weather station buyers...those who buy a cheap one, the absolute professionals, and the folks with disposable income that want a mid-price instantaneous read weather toy.

OMG. I am frustrated.

Does anyone out there have a digital weather station that they really like? Tell me why you like it, why you have it. Send me an email if a comment would be too long: katie /at/ gardenpunks.com

This is something I've really wanted for a long time, and now that I'm researching them, frankly, I'm pissed at how expensive the data logger ones are, because they're out of my reach. I don't buy myself things often, (I just bought a new pair of shoes for the first time in over a year), and I want to make a good decision and buy a product that I want for a reasonable price.

Weather station companies, take note.
