Nike Plus GPS watch powered by TomTom at CES 2011

[khyeloco]

thought switching to this gps watch was better.it proves me wrong.after a month and a half,it couldnt b detected to my computer.came to a nike store,they said currently they cant do anytg as the watch only launched.nike has great technologies no doubt but it fails too quickly.from the sports band to this.it always fails on me.damn it!suunto and garmin for the win!

[jossipmiddleby]

Is there a way to turn off the watch completely?

[TheTheneil]

Is it waterproof and do I need to have Nike shoes?

[schizonic101]

Someone please answer this question, I desperately want to purchase this fantastic watch but I'm a bit confused with this:

MUST you have the lil shoe sensor in order to use the full function of the Nike GPS watch??

[dandotreillydot42058]

@schizonic101 no

[israelroseno]

@schizonic101

no, with the gps watch, you don't need the sensor or a nike+ shoes.

The sattelite is tracking you all the way.

I hope it helps.

[AlexMarbley]

@schizonic101 You only need a sensor if you plan on running indoors where satellites are unable to connect

[xSpRonGx]

Watch is great. looks good and does everything the nike sportband does.

Negative things about the nike+ gps watch: can take 5-10mins to connect to satellite.

Website is 80% of the time down or not working properly eg impossible to log in therefore you can not see your run on maps.

[crownoverdavid]

I love how the paces shown on the video are wicked slow, but it looks like a dope product to use, most likely will get one

[shaw4141]

I happen to have the watch, and needless to say it does everything as advertised. The interface is great, I enjoy the simplicity of it all. To the people that say the USB strap seems easy to break, I assure it seems perfectly fine to me. As long as you're not bending the strap completely backwards it should be fine. A major problem I and many others have is not the watch but the website. There are so many problems and glitches with it, it is so slow to the point of almost being unusable, and...

[shaw4141]

@shaw4141 The feedback is horrific. Not one word from Nike on their forums or anything that announce that soon they will fix their site. I am disappointed that so much money is put into this system, but so little comes out from the company.

If you're looking for an easy-to-use gadget that records your mileage/pace/calories burned etc, than I highly recommend this watch

If you were hoping for an easy-to-use site however, might as well keep looking. Garmin might have a website that is maintained.

[MrMutsaerts]

I wonder if people with positive comments even ever used the watch!!!!! Like so many other Nike products great marketing but lousy functionality!! The watch takes way too much time for finding a satalite and the battery doesnt last much longer than two hours. Too bad if you are not an olympic runner. Still many thing to improve before reaching level of Garmin or other products....too bad Nike. Missed again!

[IndustrialBeaver]

@MrMutsaerts I have never used such a watch, but I think that it's wrong to say that every nike product is bad

[promattos]

Just one thing: "After your run, plug the watch strap into a USB port on your computer, and upload your run info to nikeplus.com" (also it will charge your gps watch) -- Now... wait for this watch strap to break. I bet you'll pay as much as you paid for the complete set :) This may look awesome, but it's a huge flaw. ^^ Hail Garmin!

[StreetWise1994]

Hey does it record your pulse rate..??

[greenwi28]

@StreetWise1994 Ya, you can link it to a Polar hr strap. I bought the watch about 3 weeks ago, and it's awesome. It's super simple and works great! Much easier to set up and use than the Garmin, and it's very small and light. I use it for triathlon training. Nothing works for swims, so that's moot, I have a great bike computer, so this is dedicated for run training, and is really only designed to do so, but it does what it does perfectly. No complaints... 5 star product.

[TomsMVP]

Check out new Garmin 605--> same price and it's million times better

[jr92503]

@TomsMVP Umm it's not the same price, it costs more. And it's not even a watch. I don't see how the 2 products are comparable. The 605's for cycling and this is for running.

[TomsMVP]

@jr92503 excause me 610 garmin .. :) 

[SpecialPsP]

how much is that?

[GeekTechMac]

Nike no balls to make the Nike + shoe with usb... huh.. huh.... come one I dare you!

[che308]

@GeekTechMac lmao this just made my day!

[GeekTechMac]

@che308 haha

[3wademiami]

Steve is really nice

[masala505]

Yes....but does the route show on the watch?

[malgacho]

how heavy is it?

[PeerBr]

Why the hell would I buy a watch with a display when I have to plug it into the PC to see anything. I want to see the route on the watch.

[steviefoghorn]

@cozz23 you can't magline people's arguments when you make up words like 'argumented.' Lol. Does look a very cool watch though.

[ajcrews]

Will there be Cycling version availabe ?

[cozz23]

Really well argumented post TomsMVP! Looks awesome!

[TomsMVP]

don't buy this BUY GARMIN 100times better !!!!!!1

[Gratefulguitars]

@TomsMVP you dont even know if its good your prolly just a fanboy

[Hullspawn]

This looks awesome but is it subscription based or free to use the gps signal/ software ?? What's the battery life ?? Does it have vocal prompts like the iPod version ??

So many questions but I guess I'll have to wait until closer to the April release to find out

[RascalUKonTour]

does it have a pacemaker feature?



[lazzyJames]

Where you at nike? I can't find a single place to pre-oder this watch.

[Tommyrazzle]

thats means 299 then

[jester116]

My heart sank when he said "between $199 and $299" :(

[lpslipknot07]

The new Nike + website looks great too

[gor86]

ditto

[jaredtlong]

yeah. i want this.

[jimmey303]

i have the nike pluse sports band and i will be getting this as soon as it comes out

[paredesamour]

Yes, I am a Nike fanatic, so i will be buying it.

[fpecchio]

Is the gps sensor within(inside) the watch or another devise you would have to carry around?

[MetaView7]

GOOD STUFF !!!
