Hey runners and gym buddies! Enjoy and fuel your wrist with this new Nike+ FuelBand which basically quantifies the amount of exercise you get each day, anytime and anywhere.

NikeFuel is a technology that measures one’s activity through the movement of the wrist. Like other tracking devices, the wrist-worn Nike+ FuelBand measures the number of steps taken and at the same time the amount of calories burned. Nike says that unlike calorie counts, which vary based on gender and body type, NikeFuel is a normalized score that awards equal points for the same activity regardless of physical activity.

It’s easy. Users may set a daily goal and the amount of NikeFuel they want to achieve. The NIKE+ FuelBand displays a series of 20 LED lights that go from red-to-green as the user gets closer to their goal. The FuelBand syncs with the Nike+ website through a built-in USB or thru Bluetooth connection to a free iPhone app to record daily activity and track progress.

The FuelBand is priced at USD149 (not bad!) which of course justifies its built-in Bluetooth giving convenience to connect with the iPhone app. Cool! Why not try and dare to compare your scores!
