Default Scale question

I have noticed something odd about digital scales. I have a Taylor scale
(5578) and until my weight changes by 1.4 pounds it shows the old reading.
For example, if my first weighting shows 200.0 pounds then the scale will
report 200.0 pounds day after day until my weight becomes either 201.4 or
198.6 or outside that range. I have tested that by weighting myself and
then picking up small objects until the weight changes. When testing other
digital scales I have noticed that about 1.0 pounds is when they change.

Is there any digital scales out there that don't have such a problem? I
understand that some stabilization is required to allow ease of reading, but
it should release the number when a new weighting is performed.

Mark
