It measures activity by movement of your arm. It is not a heart rate monitor, so it can't really measure exactly how many calories you burn. It is not a pedometer.
FitBit.com has a description of what it does. You can also read all kinds of reviews on the product if you google it.

I used to use a body media sync but it measured my calories not based purely on steps taken. Thanks I have been interested in another such device that will work with my iPhone.
