Product Features
The Fitbit is a device that measures a personĂs movement 24 hours a day. It is small and sleek and can even be worn underneath of clothing. It is based on the same technology as the Wii remote. It measures a personĂs movement in three dimensions instead one like most pedometers. This gives a more accurate reading of movement and calories burned during the day. The Fitbit also measures how well you sleep by monitoring how many times you move during the night. The Fitbit comes with a recharging and docking device all in one. This device is linked to your computer and automatically downloads the data when ever you come within 25 to 50 feet of the docking station. The wireless device can store data for 30 days but must be recharged at least every ten days. This makes the Fitbit very convenient for travelers to take with them on business and pleasure trips. It is not designed for water use and may not effectively measure movement such as biking. There will be a place on the website that the information downloads to input this type of information as well as to input calorie intake. The cost of the Fitbit is only $99 for the initial launch. It is not clear whether there will be a membership fee for the website at this time. The Fitbit appears to only be available for preorders on the official website.
