Nike Adds Amp+ To iPod Product Line
Nike has added to its line of iPod compatible products with the new Amp+ Sport Remote Control. The wristband acts as a watch (you can actually tell time using the LED display) and works as a remote control in conjunction with the Nike+iPod Sport Kit. Hear instant voice feedback of your time, distance, calories and pace when you add the Nike+ iPod Sport Kit and Nike+ ready shoes.
Wear the watch alone for a stylish, unique timepiece, but when used in conjunction with the iPod Sport Kit, it offers instant voice feedback regarding the time, distance, calories, and pace of your workout. The watch also features raised remote buttons for easy control of the iPod and a dedicated left-side button that triggers a pre-configured “power song” to help you pick up the pace. The polyurethane strap can be cut to any size wrist, features a stainless steel buckle, and the watch is water resistant to 50 meters.
Features:
- Durable polyurethane strap can be cut to your exact preference for a natural, comfortable fit
- Stainless steel custom-fit buckle
- LED displays time of day and icons for iPod® nano controls when activated by the remote
- Instant voice feedback of time, distance, calories and pace
- Power song accessed through left-side button for quick motivation
- Raised remote buttons for easy grip and precision
- 50m water resistance
The Amp+ is available in a variety of color combinations and is retails for $79. The Nike+iPod Sport Kit costs $29.

Don’t you get frustrated that you can only use iTunes?
I found it far too restrictive. It’s like buying a Toyota and only being allowed to use gas from the Toyota garage - or a Hotpoint Washing Machine, but only being allowed to use their own brand of washing powder.
They should open up the spec of the iPod so that you can use any kind of audio format, instead of trying to monopolize the marketplace.
Just my two cents! :o)
Peace out x

I’ve never used iTunes to manage my audio collection. I use the excellent J River Media Center http://www.jrmediacenter.com/ to organise and manage my music collection.
I’ll occasionally buy something from the iTunes store, but even then I’ll burn the songs to a CD, then import them into Media Center as mp3 files….
Thanks for the comment!
