Anyone use a Fitbit Flex or Jawbone UP?

...or any of the other tracking type wristbands? I don't care about how many steps I take or my sleep patterns-- I just need it for the silent vibrating alarm basically. I don't know why this has happened but I now turn off the five alarms I have set on my iPhone every morning and don't realize it. I used to pop right up but now I'm so cozy in bed I have trouble waking up. My wife of course hears all of the alarms and has trouble getting back to sleep. I thought I'd try one of these vibrating wrist alarms.

The Fitbit seems to get the most favorable reviews based on my limited research.
FitbitŪ Flex

Anyone use these? I jsut can't wake up when I need to anymore. Cozy bed, beautiful wife next to me-- my day can only get worse from there.

A fitbit is on my Christmas list...

But because I want to know how much I walk every day, not much interest in the alarm function.

I picked up a Fitbit Flex today and it's pretty cool. It tells me how far I've walked and all of that junk. I have the silent alarm set for tomorrow and that's what I bought it for. I can see how someone could become obsessive with something like this though with sleep patterns, calories, food intake, etc.
