My wife & daughter gave me one for my birthday last night and I'm looking forward to using it.
It looks like it will be a great tool to motivate me everyday, plus it looks pretty cool too.

Who has one? Do you like it?
Will My Fitness pal ever include it it it's app?

    I don't have one, but do use the Nike+running app for iphone, and have the Nike Fit sensor for my shoe for treadmill runs. I love the Nike+ interface and love seeing my runs. Congrats on getting the Fuel+Band. And happy birthday.

    I have a fuel band and I love it!! I originally got it back in March but that one was very messed up - any time they'd do a firmware update, I'd lose data, etc. After several false starts and then it finally completely not working anymore, Nike exchanged it for a new one. I've probably been using this new one since mid-August. Because I'm recovering for knee injuries, I don't get a lot of exercise, aside from walking the dogs and physical therapy, so it's really important to me to try and incorporate little bits of extra movement wherever I can - the fuel band helps me with that, because I always want to hit my goal. Between your daily goal and the goals you can set on the Nike+ site (like right now I'm doing a burn 33,000 calories in 4 weeks goal), it definitely keeps me moving. It's not perfectly accurate, of course, as it will count some movement as steps when it's really just your arm moving but you know what? It's fun. Almost 7 months later I still get excited about having a streak or hitting a "best day". :)

    Good luck with it!!
