The newest offering in the fitness monitor world is the Nike+ FuelBand ($149), just released last week. The bracelet tracks calories burned, steps taken, and time, but its most noted measurement is its proprietary NikeFuel number, a combination of wrist movement tracking and oxygen output calculations. You can upload your NikeFuel number wirelessly onto different social networks (like Facebook and Foursquare), as well as the Nike+ website, and compete against your friends, no matter your exercise of choice. The Nike+ FuelBand syncs with both Macs and PCs, but in the handheld word, it is currently only compatible with iPhones.
