When you pick it up, the display says stuff like WOOT!  and HEY! HEY! and HUG ME!   That's pretty much all I wanted it for.

But seriously, it's a great pedometer that tracks your steps, when you're taking stairs (seperately), how far you've walked, calories earned, etc.    It's pretty accurate and great way to track your activity. You get a wristband that tracks your sleep, but I haven't had enough time with it to see how that info is processed.   It comes with a bluetooth dongle that you plug into your pc/mac and when your fitbit is near it, it syncs to your fitbit profile online.   You can also friend other people who have the device, and you can track each other's steps and it even ranks them.  So you can feel guilty or victorious.

I just got mine yesterday and I love it.  kiss
