For those wondering, the second generation Jawbone UP wristband is now in stock at Apple retail stores in Canada (the Polo Park store in Winnipeg had stock; it’s not up on Apple.ca yet). This new version of the UP was announced just under a week ago, as the company tries to recover from the snafu of its original UP wristband from a year ago. This time around, the wristband is priced at $129.99 (instead of $99), which is $30 cheaper than the Nike+ FuelBand.
Let us know if snagged a Jawbone UP and share with us your initial thoughts on the product.
Thanks @ahmadtawakol and Mike L.!
