    I actually own the small Fuelband, and can honestly say it is a great motivator to keep moving.

    The only reason I took it off was to try the new UP band by Jawbone. I missed being able to use the band as a watch or monitor my progress via blue tooth with my iPhone.

    The other great thing about the jawbone is you can just plug it into the USB port on your macbook or notebook comupter and recharge it. no need for the USB Cable if you need to recharge.

    I found the NIke fuel band to be much more accurate and easier to wear. no moving parts to lose like the connector on the jawbone UP.

    Gadget Fun and Useful

    One month into my purchase of this new gadget and it continues to provide excitement beyond the typical 2-3 weeks fad of most gadgets I buy. I have read some previous reviews and would have to agree that it really does change your daily habits. I find myself parking farther away, climbing more stairs, and oddly doing 25-50 push-ups and sit-ups @ 11:45pm on most days just to meet goals. I probably will look at my progress 4-5 times per hour to track progress. I am looking forward to purchase other gadgets that help track biometrics like the scale and possibly the bp monitor. It would be great if a device can be designed to track the amount of calories in my diet.... Maybe like an itooth insert or something like that.......

    Found it very easy to use n was quite helpful on my first marathon in Hawaii. For those who just need the basics to track your daily and weekly activity, the BEST! Great support

    I have to say, as a 56 year old guy, this simplistic device helps me to do more than I have in the past, thank you.

    Life changer

    I'm very goal oriented. It is like getting paid for the activity. I do things I wouldn't do because I don't want to fall short of my goal. The longer you use it the greater the desire to keep up with the streaks and measuring week vs. week or month, all the way to the year.

    My overall activity has increased due to the 6 months of habit development of striving to exceed the daily goal. I don't sit still like I was doing, thus the LIFE CHANGER title of the review.

    works!

    I use this to make sure I keep active. End of the day, haven't met my goal yet...Hey puppy, let's go for another walk!

    Really, this thing is a good idea. Set the activity goal, make it every day, feel better. Keeps the couch potato-ness to a minimum. Reviewing my activity by the hour really is illuminating also.

    (I wore it to sleep a few times and it let me know when I was tossing/turning, and when I slept most soundly. But Nike doesn't really say it is for that use.)

    Too bulky!

    For the second time today while working on my desktop computer, the FuelBand button or the band itself has caught on the edge of my keyboard tray and activated a rotating menu asking me to sync. The only way to stop it is to pull out my phone and sync the thing.

    Why is the button activated? Because, since the metal clasp scratches my laptop when I type on that, I had to invert the FuelBand on my arm. So now the button gets pressed by the metal edge of my keyboard tray.

    Very disappointing. Having to invert it or take it off defeats the purpose of wearing it continually.

    The thick form factor works more like a prototype than a finished product.

    The Nike+ plus products change the way you exercise, and with the fuelband, the way you go about your daily life. Take the stairs instead of the elevator to meet the daily goal!!! I am really enjoying it.
