iPod Touch Nano revealed on NYC transit site?

by JG Mason on May 22, 2008 at 08:49 AM

3g iphone not Here I am minding my own business and checking a train schedule when I see this oddly shaped iSomething.  Is it just a rendering or does it in fact purport what the new yet unmentioned iPod touch Nano will look like?  You be the judge.

What we can tell from the image:

  • Size-wise it looks to be a cross of the current iPod touch and the iPod Nano.  A little wider screen, not quite as tall.
  • The internet looks pretty good on it, or at least, the MTA mobile website.
  • We could see this being somewhat interesting: very portable, very nice and wide screen.
  • Still just one button, if it aint broke why fix it?

Nike+ gets groovy with iPhone/touch

by JG Mason on Apr 13, 2008 at 08:45 AM

Nike+ Coach

Finally, I can stop being envious of Nano owners.  I run with my iPod touch and wish I could track my progress or embarrassing lack thereof.  Seems Nike has heard my grunts of frustration and will be releasing a version of their popular Nike+ system for the iPhone/touch.  Better than that, they’ve made some improvements.

According to a report from StuffTV, the new version will take advantage of the iPhone/touch connectivity and upload your training logs on the fly, so you don’t have to plug in.  Nice.  Nike is also bringing out there Coach program, helping you train for that that big run.

Still no heart rate tracking/display feature but you can add notes and there is all that compatibility with gym equipment… It is something.

How will Apply play the first 3rd party applications they certify for iPhone/touch?  Apple has been working with choice 3rd party developers with Lotus being the latest to come out of the spin cycle of rumors.  The question is quickly becoming, “which will Apple announce first?”
