Looking for a fitness device

Hi!
I'm looking to purchase a fitness device but with so many out there, I'm overwhelmed. Basically want something that will give me my calories burned since I do at home body weight exercises. Any suggestions?

Nothing will be able to calculate calories burned doing body weight exercises.

Pedometers won't work and heart rate monitors won't work.

Just use the estimates available on here would be easiest - and free!

Yup

Although I will admit I like toys
I use a fitbit zip to track my step-based activity over the day (synchs to MFP)
I use a Polar FT4 HRM to track my workouts which I then enter on MFP by time, taking care with calories based on the type of activity done - for weights / bodyweight I would take 50%
I judge my weight over time to adjust the amount of calories I eat back
