were on hand to introduce the new 'Nike + iPod Sports Kit' at Niketown, in New
York July 13, 2006. A small sensor, when placed in a pocket in the sole of Nike
footwear, transmits data wirelessly to an iPod, which then can be uploaded to a
computer and analyzed. The product was introduced jointly by Nike and Apple for
the first time in the United States at the store. The athletes (L -R): WNBA
Tamika Catchings; Chicago White Sox catcher A. J. Pierzynski; WNBA Cynthia
