Nike just announced the new Nike+ sport band which essentially eliminates the need to own an iPod to use the system. It's a flash drive that fits on a wrist band and has a digital readout while you're running that shows pace, distance and calories burned. After a run, you plug it into your usb @ home and it uploads to the Nike+ website just like the iPod does and you can participate in everything that us iPod owners participate in. I couldn't find the price, but I can guarantee it's a lot cheaper than an iPod. I'm guessing $50 for the kit (requires the same sensor the iPod does). I'm hoping Archaea and others will join us now.
