Jawbone UP?

Has anyone used the UP system from Jawbone? Do you like it? I found it here: https://jawbone.com/up?r=awup10&gclid=CN2Wrv3Xl7kCFWuCQgodpncAQw

I started with a FitBit but when my clip broke, I moved to the Up. I really enjoy it. I like how it sits on my wrist and looks more like a funky bracelet than a fitness tool. I don't need to keep my bluetooth active to sync with my phone and it seems to be very accurate.

What I don't like: 1) You have to use the app on your phone and not your desktop. 2) Until you get the hang of how to use the 1 button on the device to do different things, it can be a bit overwhelming. 3) I can't migrate my Fitbit friends to my Up feed for motivation.

Note: I contacted Fitbit customer service and with very little drama they sent me a new clip. I gave my Fitbit to a friend who would get a great use out of it.

I really think it all comes down to your preference. Either device is great! (I synced both with MyFitnessPal and had no real trouble judging calories.)

Good luck!
