Nike+ coming to iPhone and iPod touch

While I use my Nano and such while I run, I always have my iPhone with me, and I don't always listen to music. It would make things much easier if I could just use the thing with my iPhone. Also, that thing is always in your shoes, so why not use it as a pedometer and track stuff the entire day. Hopefully Apple can find a way to not have to have that little dongle sticking out, with the WiFi and Bluetooth built in, I mean, come on. I wouldn't mind plugging in my shoes at night to charge. :-)

Nahh! I prefer the iPod Nano for my workout. The iPhone/iPod Touch is to big and uncomfortable for running.

But I like the idea, and i expect some new features to come. Maybe a direct upload from the iPhone/iPod Touch to nikeplus.com?

is it so horrible that i've postponed working out over and over for something like this? man this is horrible

Interestingly, Nike just announced the Nike+ SportBand (http://nikeplus.nike.com/nikeplus/?promoID=uscrmABP_NPA_07Apr08&l=products,gear) -- it does all the distance and speed tracking without requiring an iPod at all.

I'd really like to see some sort of heart rate monitoring added to Nike+.

I've been a big fan of Nike+ since it came out. (I even bought a pair of nike shoes for the first time.) However I'd really prefer not to have to use my HRM when I run as well.

Wouldn't be that hard to implement. Have Nike+ come up with a chest monitor (or have an attachment that can pick up the signal the way exercise machines do), and you wouldn't need a watch with a display -- Lance could give you reports of your pace, heart rate, etc.

I've logged 3,500 miles with my iPod nano and Nike+ kit. I also own an iPod touch, but there's no way that I'd ever want to work out with the touch in my pocket. The nano is perfect for this kit, the touch (or iPhone) too big and fragile.

Even though they are Flash-based, I don't think the iPhone and iPod Touch have the right Form-Factor for a Sports MP3 Player. They'd need a Tactile Remote Control, similar to the Apple FM Remote or the BlueEye; a Touchscreen would be too clunky when your running.
If you can use a touchscreen while running, you've either superhuman dexterity or aren't running fast enough...

i dont get it.. well have wifi in our shoe?

Will they add support for old adapters in the new firmware? Probably now one knows this nd probably it will only work with new adapters.

Nike+ is a disposable product anyway..

This would be fantastic if it would slowly slew the music BPM to match my pace. Then I could set it to a desired rate and it could shuffle songs that are nearly the right speed. Even better, if I'm lagging it can lead slightly to encourage me to go a little faster. Might be more than an ipod could manage, but maybe a touch or an iphone.
