Nike + iPod

Need to lose weight? Love music? How about the wireless Nike+iPod sports kit? Throw the pebble sized instrument into a pocket inside one of Nike's specially designed shoes, connect the wireless receiver to your iPod Nano and it streams data to the latter!

Pebble placed and wireless receiver attached, you are all set to run. All you have to do is turn on your iPod and click on the Nike+iPod menu item to set the time and distance for your workout. Soon after, you are prompted by a voice to get started. These prompts, along with updates of your progress are repeated at regular intervals and gain in intensity later. In the fitness segment, the Nike+iPod does not meet the mark where precision is concerned. However, if you were to talk about pure elegance, usability and appeal, then this duet sings along comfortably!
