I am looking for something like the fitbit, or the nike fuelband. I really want to be able to sync it to an app on my phone (an HTC incredible S) without having to connect thru the computer every time. Does anyone know of something that would do this? if not, which do you feel is the better option - fitbit or fuelband? I like the idea of working toward a daily goal with the fuelband, does fitbit "do" anything when you reach your daily goal? Which one do you think will get the android app out sooner?

    Bodymedia fit is more accurate than those two. You'd need to check the website to see if it syncs with that phone but if not you can get the smaller Core model and get the optional,display.

    The new fitbit syncs with an iphone. I'm gutted because I don't want to buy ANOTHER fitbit but I REALLY want one that will sync with my phone

    :(

    You can just use the computer. In that case get the Core as its smaller.
