#nike_ipod_sport_kit I think it is innovative to get to listen to your music as well as updates on how far you have run. The best part about it is that it can upload your data on the computer without having to manually input it.

#nike_ipod_sport_kit Only nano. wah wah wah. I think this is a great idea, and is really affordable if you already have a nano. I have a watch that does this kind of thing, but not as slick as this. It may be weird to have to run with your nano, though.

#nike_ipod_sport_kit Ya, it works with Nano. I'm in the process of finding out more information about it and I'll update the description on this page when I do.

#nike_ipod_sport_kit Does it just work with the iPod Nano? Can it work with other iPods? Indeed it is really cool, a friend of mine showed me the site today and all of the cool benefits with the program.

#nike_ipod_sport_kit This is a great price for the functionality. I have a Nike watch and pod combo that does the same thing, but it costs $200. If you have an iPod, then this is a great value. Knowing your pace helps your running/training immensely.
