    There's lots of posts on both, if you do a search. I think if you move your arms a lot, the fuel can be inacurate.

    The Nike thingy is more exy, I saw that much when I googled lol. I have a Fitbit Ultra - and love it to pieces. Having said that - I don't do aerobics, or breakdancing etc - so it tracks my normal daily activity and lets me know what I've burned. Perfect for me. It depends on what you enjoy doing, and what your activity level is. For $100, my fitbit fits my life beautifully.

    I found this link very helpful. although I still haven't decided what to go for. I cycle, walk, zumba and play team sports. I think I just want a ball park HR estimated Calorie burn, but if santa is kind, then a watch with GPS altimeter for hill walking would be fun to play with.
