Fitbit - yay or nay?

I have a Fitbit One, and it does accurately count steps and changes in altitude, giving you credit for a flight of stairs for every 10 ft. climb. When I'm sitting still or not wearing it, the Fitbit counts calories at it's estimate for my BMR. On the Fitbit website graphs, it shows calorie burn in 15 minute increments. For bike riding, I take it off and use MapMyRide. Both MapMyRide and Fitbit sync with MFP, and when I complete a bike ride the calorie burn for the ride shows up on both MFP and Fitbit (even though I wasn't wearing it) since the Fitbit/MFP sync is 2-way.0
