Bought the original Up. After my final refund, I swore never to do business with this company again.
What issues did you have with the UP?

you have to admit that as a company they definitely are more truth worthy after they complete refunded every customer AND let them keep their wrists to keep collecting data.

Bought the original also, worked great for 3 months then died. 100% money back refund, no questions asked. Will definitely get the new UP!
I initially wanted the UP. I liked the idea of the sleep tracking and the vibrating alarm. With all the bad reviews I ended up getting the Nike Fuelband which I love.
I was seriously considering the Fuelband but this has made my decision even harder.
Do I want sleep tracking or do I want a LED & bluetooth for instant feedback.
im interested, sounds like it has great potential, i really like the sleep features. if it does lean when to wake you up after some time on its own with out notification at that instant from a phone then i see no need for wireless sync
though the first gen one, does have some bad reviews, like 5/10
i think i ll have to wait for this one to be on the market for a bit first and see what other ppl are saying.
I think I’m going to have one just in time for Christmas. This looks like a great product with potential, just think that 130$ is a bit pricey. I’ll wait for complete reviews to take a clear decision about it !
I just ordered the new Jawbone Up. I had my eye on the original Up from last year, but it was pulled off the market before I could buy it. Lately I had been looking at Fitbit’s One, though I’m glad the Up v2.0 came out cause it seems like a better product. We’ll see.
You ship it to the US?
