Hit the road, Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more.
Hit the road, Jack and don't you come back no more.
What you say?
Hit the road, Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more
Hit the road, Jack and don't you come back no more
(Lyrics from Hit the road jack by Ray Charles)
For all iPod lovers out there, this is a great news, Nike is going to launch a iPod compatiable shoe shortly.
Apple and Nike have agreed to collaborate to offer iPod users both apparel and accessories that will be compatible with iPod. The two companies have announced specially designed footwear that would allow the wearer to use their iPod nano to monitor time, calories burned and pace. Additionally, the shoes could give real time audible feedback when used with headphones. The Nike + Air Zoom Moire will be the first shoe to be "iPod ready."This collaboration will help Apple take the music to a new level, what with music in my shoes I would be ready to hit the road anytime.
"We're working with Nike to take music and sport to a new level," said Steve Jobs, Apple's CEO. "The result is like having a personal coach or training partner motivating you every step of your workout." The Sport Kit will be made available by this summer for $29 and would be available through Apple itself or authorized resellers. The launch of the device would also be accompanied by specially-designed Nike apparel, the two companies said.
