The Sizzle is not made of money (yet).

I still may have to go and spring for it though... and if I do, it's on!

The reviews on the Apple website were mixed.

Steel and/or Goose, have you had any trouble with your systems? Seems it's common to either have trouble calibrating or trouble with the web interface, or both...any thoughts?

But if it makes running any less like a personal pergatory, I might be convinced.

ps. I like that video.

It might be fun, but I was quite disturbed by Steel's YOuTube link, and believe I might need therapy as a result.

I haven't even used it yet, as it was technically my wife's Christmas present. I'll let her continue to think I actually got it for her before I gradually move in and, first, make myself an equal partner in the iPod and then slowly take over as majority owner.

But to answer your question, no, my wife has not had any problems yet with her nike+. She still loves it. She did a 4 mile race the other day and the distance was pretty accurate. No problems with the web interface either. The only problem she ever runs into with the website is that occasionally it gets a bit clogged up with all the weekend runners, making it difficult to log in on saturday or sunday night.

Nike's site was overwhelmed by the number of users initially. As this was a big part of the allure of the product people were initially less than thrilled. All of that was fixed by Christmas when I got my nano. It's been nothing but great for me. I highly recommend it.

That was the best SNL fake commercial ever!

Okay SteelBlue, you've got about a month head start on me... but I am getting the Nike + for my iPod. I won't be getting it until Valentine's Day... but I'll be ready to roll then!

Right on. You're going to love the thing. Let me know as soon as you get a screen name.
