All Nike Shoes to Become iPod Compatible

- The running shoes will have iPod nano technology

By: Bogdan Popa, Security and Search Engines Editor

The Apple iPod is currently one of the most popular devices in the world because it allows users to listen music from any location on the earth. Earlier this day,
I wrote an article about a new goal of the device that is now helping doctors to discover heart problems by hearing correct heartbeats on the Apple’s iPod. Last year in September, Apple made a partnership with Nike to distribute running shoes bundled with iPod Sport Kits. After three months Apple sustained they sold over 450.000 kits, the products being valued at $30 as AppleInsider sustains.

Today, the same publication reports that Nike Inc. decided to include the Apple technology into all running shoes by the end of the year. "The comment was made Nike president and chief executive Mark Parker on Thursday as the shoe maker released its third-quarter results, saying it had a soft year with some specialty mall retailers. The segment overall was down, according to Boston.com, with some companies like Foot Locker Inc. and Finish Line Inc. suffering from slumping sales. Nike, however, said it is poised to make major changes in retail this year with the help of leading retail partners that will build strength," AppleInsider reported.

In fact, how can a pair of Nike shoes bundled with Apple iPod technology help us? Well, it can help you only if you’re looking for a product to help you manage and organize your training. Basically, they can track the distance, time and the burned calories just like a special bicycle. Although it might look a little too complicated, the iPod nano is connected to a wireless module included in the Nike shoes and displays to the owner the data recorded while he/she was training.
