Nike + Apple = Magic

February 18th, 2009 | No Comments | Posted in life

This was one of the best impulsive shopping I ever did – buying an iPod Nano and a Nike sensor in one shot!
After more than two years of usage, I have to say that I’m a delighted customer.

This simple “toy” changes the way you work out. By uploading your results to a Nike  online profile which tracks all your moves, running is no longer a boring exercise, tiring and ussualy tied with crazy weight losing programs. It becomes a vicious and competitive game!

Recently I’ve lost my 1st sensor, so I had to buy one new. I found a small and nice Apple Store in Lisbon called Computer Bench and I got only the sensor (I had already the receiver) for only 19 euros (“only” considering Apple or Nike’ standard price, of course).

The only problem I had so far was pairing the new remote. Apple iTunes assume that since the sensor is new, the user wants to create another account. It might seem strange, but it makes sense after all – this would be the situation where the iPod is shared by a family and each member has a different sensor and different accounts… To solve the trouble, I had to use this advice: Unpairing the old sensor.
