Nike Vs Timex Fight for iPod
In the middle of December ImpressiveTime.com got to grips with watches and technology by selling the Timex IControl. The Timex IControl wristwatch works as a remote for iPods so when your working hard in the gym, you don’t need to fiddle with your iPod, you don’t even need it in your pocket. When Timex thought they might have the lead on iPod Watches along came Nike.
The NIKE watch is called the Nike Amp+ iPod Control Watch
This could and most probably will be the market leader in iPod Control Watches. Why?
- The Nike Amp+ iPod Control Watch will only display hours and minutes not seconds.
- It has no date functions
- It has no alarm
- It has no stopwatch
But take a look.
So what’s the point of this if it only looks good. You need to buy one last thing the iPod + Kit
This will allow you to use the Nike Amp to full potential. With the Nike kit you will have a special wireless sensor in your Nike shoes, the Nike + iPod kit let’s you use your iPod to;
- Track your time, distance, pace, and the number calories you’ve burned.
- Choose workouts with specific types of goals, and record your personal bests.
- Program a “power song” which is selectable from a special menu for when you need some additional motivation.
- Receive voice feedback about your workout so you don’t have to look at your iPod while running.
