Apple Computer Nike + iPod Sport Kit

Looks like a splendidly well designed and smartly integrated piece of kit. Uses a small shoe sensor to count your steps, an iPod nano to track them and store the data, iTunes to sync it, and a Nike-run website to visualize it over time. If I were ever planning to get off my arse, this would probably convince me to drop $80 on Nike trainers.
