How does someone change the pic for this article? The ipod nano case is hideous!
This page is totally written like an advertisement and the format needs to be Wikified!

I agree. there is a specific point of view in this article —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.137.228.77 ( talk) 00:25, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
Though the initial product, and still the flagship, is the one with integration with iPod nanos, that particular instance of the product is a subset of the system that works with or without an iPod. The article should no longer redirect from Nike+, which should become the main article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 38.112.19.2 ( talk) 21:58, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
Is it worth mentioning that there have been issues?

I just recently purchased a newer model iPod Touch and discovered that there is a Nike+ app pre-installed. Perhaps someone with a bit more knowledge as to how the sensor interacts with the Touch model (wifi?) could include a section on the article page. Windmillninja ( talk) 07:07, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
Does anyone know what has happened to the SportBand mentioned in the article? I was looking to buy one and haven't been able to find it anywhere on Nike or Amazon? Here's the info about the launch from Engadget back in April so it seems unlikely they have discontinued it already. -DjD- ( talk) 11:44, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
I question the relevance of the Privacy Concerns section and how much it adds to the article. The University of WA study is more about "what can be done" with the device than facts relating to it's criminal usage. The Abstract states that your run route could be tracked. This is laughable at best once you see the full unit later in the report used to track a runner. It's the Touch Sensor joined to a computer chip joined to a lengthy transmitter- imagine that tucked into a shoe and the runner not noticing it. This would be better suited for a spy article, or James Bond gadget blog. While it's a fun exploration of technology and the writer's ability to tinker with it, putting jazzed up content from this report is unfitting for this great Wikipedia.

I've heard speculation and rumors that the sensor actually communicates over Bluetooth. Can anyone confirm or deny this? gujamin ( talk) 23:51, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
The device does NOT use an accelerometer. It uses a simple piezo disc that outputs a voltage every time the foot touches the ground. Source: http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/tutorial_info.php?tutorials_id=41
"...There is no MEMs accelerometer! The foot pod was designed to activate a simple piezoelectric sensor to monitor how long your weight is on the foot (the faster you run, the shorter amount of time spent on one foot)."

So millions of users who don't have a Nike shoe and strap this thing to their shoe laces are simply making the data up they get on their iPods? Unlikely.
Either the design changed since sparkfun.com opened the sensor, or they misinterpreted their findings.

Nowhere in the marketing material from Apple does it mention that the battery in the Nike+ sensor cannot be replaced. This is fairly important information for anyone wanting to know about this device -- the battery can go dead in less than a year, and neither Apple nor Nike offer any guarantee on the battery life. This should be pointed out somewhere in the article. 62.202.43.167 ( talk) 21:27, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: Page moved: as there was no objection Ground Zero | t 01:18, 9 September 2014 (UTC)
Nike+iPod →
Nike+ – It has changed name since the release of the Android app and on the website it is marketed as Nike+ or Nike plus. The WP page for Nike+ is a redirect to the current one. --Relisted.
