- I don't need no stinkin' iPod to use the cool online features on Nike! This thingy doesn't do music, it only tracks speed, distance, time, and calories. I don't have iPod... I like my Sansa better... not that I listen to music when I run anyway, not when I have 2 crazed Sibes in tow! (or should I say.... yanking me along and not always in the same direction!)
- Plug the thingy into a USB port and all the runs you've completed since your last upload are uploaded automatically! No more remembering... how far did I go last Wednesday???
- Hard to cheat... you can delete runs but cannot alter them after they are uploaded.
- A pause button! (handy when a pup stops to.... you know....)
- I can't set a POWERSONG on my widget thingy... (bummer but not enough to make me run out and buy iPod)
- No backlight... makes it hard to use in the dark. And I am a night owl who likes to run in the dark sometimes.
- The distance and pace isn't perfectly accurate. I'm wondering if this will become a problem for me at some point since I'm rather anal about seeing improvement and there have been a lot of complaints about how it can be tough to properly calibrate this thingy.
- If you forget to turn off the thingy after your run, it really screws up your stats and there's no way to fix it, other than to delete it altogether.

Woof,
Vegas? You're in Vegas? Our Mom just loves Vegas. She tries to go at least once a year. She likes to drink beer and walk the strip. Anyway, it's nice to meet you pups. Thanks for visiting Life Inside the Fence.
Woof, woof
