The FitBit Force! It's not really in my budget, but it's fun to geek out over. Anyone have a fitbit-like device they use?

I don't understand the market for this particular device but I might not be the target market. I use only a heart rate monitor for my tracking. At the end of the day - these are all estimates. I feel like this is a 120 dollar pedometer with a (very) pretty screen/design.


My device -

Great app for $4.50 that syncs to the web and can be backed up.
Best of all - they do not charge subscription fees. Been using it for about 1 1/2 years now and they update the app monthly. The developer wants to integrate with MFP but they have not/ will not give him access to the myfitnesspal api. Most likely because MFP is partnered with fitbit :grumble:

I want this as well. I'm a wrist band wearer. Considered getting the flex for the longest time but saw the force was coming out soon so I'm waiting. My roommate has the pedometer clip that tracks steps and we have the fitbit aria scale.
