[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

Topic: I have a first world problem

	My ipod died on me a few months back. Luckily my sister had an old one she wasn't using anymore that she gave me. Problem is the battery doesn't really hold a charge (it's old) and the model is so old that it doesn't support Nike+iPod, which I use to track my daily runs (distance, calories burned, average mile times, etc etc). Needless to say, I need to get a new iPod. Next month (April) my cell phone is also due to an upgrade. Common sense would dictate that I just wait a few days and buy an iPhone. Here's where the first world problem comes in.... I hate Apple. The only reason I am considering a new ipod is the nike+ipod. I don't want an iPhone, although it'd be easier. I'm sure no Haitians have this problem. Suckers. -----signature----- I can't hear you over the sound of how awesome I am.

	if you don't want an ipod/iphone, just get the nike+ sport watch: http://nikeplus.nike.com/plus/products/sport_watch/ although i think it would be cheaper to just get an iPod nano. http://nikeplus.nike.com/plus/products/ipod_nano/ -----signature-----

	there's this too: http://nikeplus.nike.com/plus/products/sport_band much cheaper at $59, but i think i'd still spring for something with GPS. -----signature-----

	I like the Nano plus a wrist band thing that makes the nano just like a watch while I run. I've considered all of those. One of my buddies said to use the mapmyrun app on Android as well. It'd be easier if there was a nike+samsung or something. The closest is a 1gig phone that is like adidas+samsung, but it costs $600 lol -----signature----- I can't hear you over the sound of how awesome I am.

	If you want a dedicated running watch, get something like the Garmin Forerunner. -----signature----- (none)

	It's not that I want a watch. The nike+ipod app keeps track of my time and distance traveled. The problem is I need a new ipod and a new cell phone but I don't want an iphone. I just don't like Apple. But there's no other option and nike+ipod is really really nice. The watch you mentioned is really cool but the music is helpful too. -----signature----- I can't hear you over the sound of how awesome I am.
