I posted the iPhone / iPod question on the Nike+ forums and received this response from a Nike+ rep: "I am not able to comment on the reasons behind the decisions regarding compatible devices, either from a Nike or an Apple standpoint ... Right now, the bottom line is that the Polar WearLink+ is compatible with the 5G iPod nano, Nike+ SportBand, certain Polar training computers, and certain compatible gym equipment. I am sorry that, for practical and business reasons, it wasn't possible to extend that compatibility to everyone."
So they've limited this useful device to an extremely small subset of the already small subset of Apple users on Nike+.
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
