Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Shame about the fuelband - it does look very "cool"!!

I like the fitbit but I can see how it would be easy to lose interest because of the lack of display. I think the garmin display might hold my interest longer but I have small wrists and it does look more bulky than the fitbit

I have a fuelband and haven't had any problems with the device itself - website occasionally appears to have issues.

Driving confuses it though - I got a significant number of points for driving across France despite sitting on my bum for 12 hours

I've just a vivofit for my birthday. so far its pretty cool. I like the fact it complements my Garmin Forerunner 220 and I can all my activities fromt he 2 devices in 1 place.
It also pairs with my 220 HRM strap, so if you have a Garmin already it is likely to work with that HRM instead of forking out for a vivofit one.

Will update more in a few days when I've played with it more and seen what the sleep tracker records.
