BodyBugg use during workouts

Hello,
So my gym is having a sale on bodybuggs right now. I'm pretty much sold, except I'm concerned about the accuracy during workouts. I read on their page that the device may not be as accurate during intense workouts, and have read in other forums of people getting lower calorie burns than they would have figured.

I would like to know how much I burn throughout the day, but also want a good count of my exercise cals burned. I know i can buy a BB and a HRM, but that's going to be pricey.

Anyone using the bodybugg during workouts and happy with it/ successful with it?

    that's rather strange. i mean isn't the entire point of wearing a bodybugg to see the different spikes in activity all day long

    Yea, now I can't find where I read about the intense workouts and it not being recommended for that...I just can not decide between a HRM and the bodybugg. I would like to know how much i burn on a daily basis, but after I learn that, I feel like the bodybugg would be unnecessary in the long run.

    If anyone has any opinions I'd love to hear them!
