defragger: Looks like Amazon now ship Fitbit directly to NZ. Might pick one up.

Free shipping too! $163 NZD roughly all up.

Have to contemplate if it's worth replacing my 3 month old Flex for however...

Nathan if that was an open offer, I'd be very grateful. I won't be offended if it wasn't. :)

Thanks. I've just realized it doesn't have a smart alarm (that wakes you between two times at your lightest sleep time) so I might skip to the next generation.

Appreciate the offer though.

I'm pretty sure that isn't the Fitbit Force as the OP was talking about.. that's the Fitbit Flex?

Looks like Amazon have stopped selling the Force directly, and is now only available from other third-party sellers.

I was put off by the horrendous shipping costs ontop of the now inflated device costs. And confused by all the sellers who drop-shipped etc that I didn't know which to go with since the original links were here :(

So went for a One from jbs while they are on special.

Would have liked the added CID features etc of the force. But this will do in the intrim. Did wonder why the supplies were low and still no ETA for non US regions. The downside to not being a 0-day type person
