So does this mean we can't expect Nike+ for Zune? Is Apple behind all the technology, or is actually Nike, since Nike has the main brand name on the product? Or is it an exclusive contract for a few years? Because I'd just really like a similar system for my Zune, but I'm not sure about the whole Nike and Apple thing.
It's not just Nike+. It's Nike+iPod. The sports technology is Nike, the software is Apple. It's not licensing. It's a full-on partnership. No Nike+Zune.
Which is kind of sad, because Nike+ is a great system, and my brother works for Nike. And yet I refuse to buy an iPod. C'est la vie.
@ Miguel: you can get the standalone band (~50 bucks) which comes with the sensor and a wrist band you can use for tracking your runs (it has software for it to so it can interface with the nike+ website).
then if you ever decide to get an ipod and end up with the new ipod touch, you'll already have the shoe sensor for it.
The Galaxy Tab 10.1, much like its Limited Edition sibling that we reviewed last month, is ever-so-slightly thinner than the iPad 2, a slate that most sane individuals (and competitors, for that matter) would confess is the market leader today.
