Apple and Nike team up - 20:30 30 May 06 Nike and Apple are teaming up to create a smart playlist selector for runners. A unit in the shoe will communicate to the iPod what your cadence is and select an appropriate song from your list. There would also be a remote button to get a 'power song' pumping when you need an aural boost to get you through a dificult patch.

Nice idea! More info at...

Re:Apple and Nike team up - 09:07 31 May 06 I remember seeing the price but I can't quite remember, I think it was $30... which probably means £30!! Feel so much better for a skate tonight, still can't talk but enough energy to go back to work tomorrow

You’ll need a special Nike+ trainer, like the Air Zoom Moire which will be available from July for around £70. It will be sold bundled with the Nike+iPod sports kit, which will also be available separately late June for around £15 at Apple’s store.

£15 ain't bad! or £70 even for some hi-tech trainers! Feel so much better for a skate tonight, still can't talk but enough energy to go back to work tomorrow

Re:Apple and Nike team up - 13:11 31 May 06 Thats pretty cool and a very good price. Good quality Running trainers usually cost about £70/£90 a time (not that I run of course

)
saying that you still gotta buy an ipod

Re:Apple and Nike team up - 13:21 31 May 06 the device is going to be AUD$49 here... cheap...
but it will only work with the Nano. You don't have to have the trainers but you will have to cut out a chunk in any other shoes you want to use it in.

Nike have joined up with other companies like this before and it has, for the most part, flopped. :: In the time of chimpanzees I was a monkey
