I bought the Nike+ wristband for my boyfriend and he loves it! It is a great workout accessory. It also came before the estimated arrival date!
Like it so much, bought another as a gift! February 6, 2010

 NOT WATERPROOF / DOESN'T COUNT CALORIES. February 6, 2010

I bought this watch mainly to count calories, and no such luck. It calculated distance, speed, and pace pretty accurately, and the website is motivating, so I decided to keep it. However, after one run I wore it in the shower sort of absent mindedly, but wasn't worried sice it was advertised as being water resistant. It completely broke within the next day.
It was a good product, but they shouldn't advertise it as waterproof, and it did not count calories at all. 60 dollars for one week of semi-satisfying use :(

The Nike+ Sportband is an excellent tool to add to your running or walking routine. The device links to a sensor you place in your shoe that tracks your milage, pace, and calories burned. Do not think this is to be used as a pedometer. It is meant for measuring distance not steps. The Sportband is very simple to use once you get past the directions Nike includes. The directions included show pictures, but written directions do not accompany these. This is frustrating for people who like to use written directions and can be confusing. The directions are not clear about how to link the Sportband to the shoe sensor. You may have to google how to do this in order to assure proper function.
The Nike+ Sportband is lightweight and very comfortable for wrist wear. It is a little large for people with small wrists. I have it on the tightest setting and still have movement on the wrist. It is a great alternative to the iPod armbands which can give you that tourniquet feel.
In order to assure accurate workouts, you must make sure to calibrate the sensor and enter your correct age and weight. If you do not calibrate the sensor, your workout distance can be off as much as a quarter mile per mile. If you do not enter your data, your calories burned will not be accurate. These two things should be your first action with the Sportband or any Nike+ product.
The Sportband also has a few drawbacks. If you have used Nike+ products with the iPod, you may be used to receiving the vocal feedback that can countdown miles left if you are planning to run a certain distance. You do not get the vocal feedback during your workout with the Sportband. You do have to actually look at the Sportband to get your workout data.
Overall, the Nike+ Sportband is a great investment for people who want quick workout feedback for running or walking. It is a great alternative to Nike+ with iPod if you do not like to run with music or like to fidget with a semi-bulky item. I use mine for every workout along with my iPod shuffle for a satisfying run with feedback.
