I really like the look of the new “Amp+ Sport Remote Control” watch from Nike, which integrates with the Nike+ iPod Nano wireless receiver and training module. The LED grid is showing playback control feedback in the picture, but also displays the time.
The only place I run is to the bodega to get more cigarettes—I exercise, actually, but just loathe running; Plus: Bad knees!—but if I were a yogger I’d find the whole Nike+ iPod package irresistible. And it’s even affordable at $80. At that price it’s almost worth just buying the watch for general purpose use. (Of course, you’d also need to buy the $30 Sport Kit. And an iPod Nano.)

Styled, no doubt, after the wrist communicators from “Star Trek – The Motion Picture”?
