Best device for figuring out calories burnt

Hi you guys,
I was just wondering what peoples opinions were on monitors for figuring out how many calories you burn while working out? I just go by the machines, and I know they're not the most accurate, especially for different sizes/shapes people are in. What type of monitor should I look into getting that's going to be the most accurate? I know that I'm not going to get 100% accurate, but I'd sure like to be closer than I am now

I own a BodyMedia Fit LINK and love it. It's accurate and I track my burn all day through the smartphone app I downloaded. Cool stuff.0

Just a Thought: Reduce the number of calories one consumes so one doesn't need to take on a part time job to lose them and flush good money down the toilet. With your food savings buy useful things that will be around for more than 24 hours...0
