Nanike... Nikano...

a, will you be interested?

Extract from "Apple, Nike exercise iPods to monitor workout results", USA Today 25 May 2006
~ Nike+iPod Sports Kit – a wireless kit that let Nike's new Air Zoom Moire shoes send fitness data to iPod Nano, via a sensor tuck inside the running shoes and a small receiver that attaches to the Nano.
~ As you run, the sensor records your distance, time, pace and calories burnt in real time and displays data on the Nano.
~ At the push of a button, audio feedback is delivered through Nano's earbuds
~ Can customize a workout (how far, how long) and choose playlists to hear on the run. You can also set up a “power song” that kicks in when you need to summon a burst of energy.
~ From the Nano, you can upload workout data to Apple's iTunes and a new nikeplus.com website. You can track progress over time and compete virtually with other runners.
~ The USD29 kit is inexpensive (!) accessory for two premium-priced products. Of course, you'll have to spend USD149+ for the Nano and USD100+ for the shoes.
