The collaboration of two big names brings in the biggest and most interesting fitness toy in the tiniest of sizes. The result of Apple’s tie-up with Nike, this jogger-friendly kit lets your trainers “talk” to your iPod nano, telling it how fast you are going and how many calories you’ve burned as you run.
The set-up is simple. A tiny sensor - totally unnoticeable in use - slots into a cavity beneath the sole of Nike’s “+” range of trainers, and a small receiver plugs into your nano. A Nike+ option then appears on the iPod’s menu.
Once on the road, you hold down the nano’s central button to play a previously selected “PowerSong” - a burst of Rock you like a Hurricane, say - when your legs start to go. A shorter tap of the central button summons a satnav-esque voice that reads out time, distance, pace, and calories burned.
The real fun starts once you get home. Sync it with your Mac or PC, and your data is automatically uploaded to nikeplus.com.
The only downside is that it increases the size of the nano. However, the power song feature really helps when your pace starts reducing. The website also tracks your performance and compares them with other runners. It’s a great little gadget.

The Apple iPod is not so much an upgrade as a total revamp of the iPod, the Touch 16GB is basically Apple’s iPhone without the disappointing aspects of that device - such as the recessed earphone socket, the paltry storage, the crappy camera and, err, phone bit. It’s also thinner - about a third as thick as the iPhone.
Everything we love about the iPhone is still here. The huge screen sports a multi-touch interface that’s smoother than a hot knife through butter.It lets you flick through tracks, gawp at video and pinch-zoom photos, with no practice or manual consultation. Put next to an iPhone, the screen’s got a tad more detail and better contrast, too.
The Touch’s built-in Wi-Fi puts the iTunes Store in your pocket. Now, you can buy tracks that take your fancy on the move, then have them injected into your player once you’ve docked it back home. The Safari web browser also lets you view websites from Wi-Fi hotspots.
Apple’s earphones remain iconic but not so well fitting. So bin them, safe in the knowledge that your replacements will fit into the earphone socket. Once that’s done, sound quality is on a par with any other iPod.
If you’re after a mid-capacity MP3 player, but don’t fancy such anything overly fancy upgrade, the Touch is an attractive prospect. Be warned, though: once you’re used to Apple’s multi-touch interface, you’ll be spoiled for life. Nothing else is ever going to seem quite as alluring or ingenious.

One of the simplest of gadgets, the PED 3 Stand, is really innovative. We all are accustomed to an iPhone or an iPod, but when we are with it. Holding it for hours, we can at times tire ourselves. This is a very tedious work and this is where the new PED stand comes in. This is a rotating stand where you can place your iphone or ipod and watch a film or watch music videos.
This small gizmo is made up of just one pound of steel, with its grips coated in rubber such that the device can be held firmly. The positioning that has been done is really unique, as the buttons are not blocked. There is also an opportunity of rotation of the hands around 360 degrees and it can be adjusted between two angled positions.
It is a good buy, if you are looking for something that would hold your apple iphone.
Its simple and it rocks!!
