Includes unusual Nike+ port
Accessory maker Hex has announced the Sport Watch Band, a forthcoming product for the sixth-generation iPod nano. Like similar gear the band allows people to wear a Nano as a wristwatch. The Sport Watch, though, is intended explicitly for exercise, and unusually includes a special port meant for Nike+ gear. The Nano already has Nike+iPod support built in.
Other design touches include integrated control buttons, and the ability to pop a Nano in or out of the case. Perforated silicone is used to help reduce heat during workouts. The Sport Watch Band should ship sometime in April; no price has yet been mentioned.
