    I don't have one but I just went and had a bit of a google as I'd never heard of it before!

    It hasn't really had a great review, I found this;

    Hope this helps!

    Hmm, that review is from 2009...hoping it has been improved upon?! (wishful thinking?!)

    Possibly, they don't really have any reviews on updates.

    I was reading a few bits on the website and it said they were hoping to be able to ship outside of the US a month or so after the US launch but they're still only available in the US. (I quite liked the idea of the sleep pattern bit but was disappointed to find I couldn't get one in the UK :grumble: ) So I'm not sure how much more they've been developed since they were released.

    But like the review says as long as you're only really wanting it to track basic daily movement like walking then it looks like a great gadget!

    I use an app on my phone to record my daily activities and I love it! (Plus its free :happy: )
