    WWW Running shoes that talk to your iPod

    No joke. With the right pair of Nike's, you will soon be able to use an iPod Nano as a pedometer.

    The price tag weighs more than my curiosity, but gawd, will they think of next?

    I can already see the iPod connected breathalyzer.

    Default Re: Running shoes that talk to your iPod

    my boyfriend was telling me about this yesterday because he loves all things Apple.

    I'm like..."so what. It's just a pedometer." He responded, "oh my god! when people saw the iPod, they thought it was just another mp3 player."

    Except there was a huge market for mp3 player buyers, and a tiny market for dorky runners. I see people buying more sneakers, but nobody is going to buy an ipod who wasn't going to before.

    iPod has run its course (although I heard from the boyfriend that they are making the screen bigger on the video ipod, in time for Christmas.) There's really nothing more they can do to it to get people to buy them .....which of course will be a huge blow to Apple Computers.
