Was just searching online and I see the Running Room website has them so I'm going to try and call them in the morning to see if they have them in store as well. I'll let you know what I find out.

I don't have much to contribute, but I will say that Nike + is great.

I have the Nike Zoom + and it is worth it! I paid $29.99 for mine, but I got it in Seattle.

I thought SportChek has always had them, unless they recently stopped selling them there?

:dunno:

Always wondered... what exactly are these things and what do they do?... I saw them at a Nike outlet store when I was in the US over winter break for like $15

They like record data in your run from the little chip that goes in your shoe, to your ipod...you can setup like runs and stuff.

Curious, does the sensor go in any shoe or does it only come on certain nike models?

Nike makes a shoe that has a cut out in the insole for the sensor to fit into.

However, you can jerry rig the sensor to any shoe and have it work the same. People who don't buy the shoe, they put the sensor in between the shoe tongue and lace.

The sensor works with any shoe. The easiest way is to put the sensor in between the shoe tongue and lace. Looks a little ghetto though.

Any Nike Model you see with the + in the name will have a spot for the sensor in the shoe. You can buy the holders on ebay for a few bucks to use with any shoe though. Tried on some Nike+'s and found them much better than what I was using so I figured it's worth the extra money.

The crappy thing is you have to have an iPod Nano for this to work. Doesn't work with any other iPod.
