This week Nike announced that the Nike+ FuelBand is now available at Apple Stores nationwide, as well as in Canada and the U.K. Two new colors, including Black Ice and Black Steel, have been added as well. The Nike+ FuelBand was launched earlier this year and allows users the ability to track various fitness and activity metrics throughout the day including steps taken and calories burned. Activity is tracked and the NikeFuel score assigned based on efforts, while users can even share and compare progress with friends.
A Nike+ FuelBand mobile app is available for the iPhone 5, iPhone 4S and 4, as well as for the iPod Touch, so it is fitting that the device is now available at Apple retailers for $149.95.
Your phone is as essential an accessory for running as water, keys and a pair of sunglasses. Yet most smartphones today are a little too big and clunky to fit in the pocket of a pair of running shorts – if there’s even a pocket. The SportShell Convertible iPhone 4 and 4S Case from Marware is a multi-format case that clips into an armband to make it easy to bring the iPhone along on your run. 
As summer soon will head to fall it means that riding on the trainer won’t be far behind. There are many cycle computers systems that pair with smartphones for riding on the road but now cycle trainer maker Kinetic (we like the name as much as we like their trainers) is set to roll out the Bluetooth Smart system that can be used with its fluid trainers.
The crew at OtterBox have long created durable iPhone and other smartphone cases for the demanding users, but now they haven’t created a Military-Style version for the iPhone 4S that looks tough enough to take into battle. It is available in 11 color options including Urban Funk (black/gray digital camouflage silicone with pink polycarbonate), Blizzard (gray/white digital camouflage silicone with black polycarbonate), Ocean (blue digital camouflage silicone with black or blue polycarbonate), Desert (brown/tan digital camouflage silicone with black or white polycarbonate), Urban (black/gray digital camouflage silicone with black or gray polycarbonate), Jungle (green/brown/black old-school camouflage silicone with black or orange polycarbonate), and Forest (green digital camouflage silicone with black polycarbonate) among others.
Accessories-maker Snow Lizard Products has introduced what could be the perfect rugged case for the iPhone 4 and 4S: the AQUA TEK S. The tank-like case not only gives your iPhone waterproof protection, but a built-in batter and solar charger gives your iPhone an extra boost of power (with these devices getting more and more power hungry, that’s welcome, especially if you’re outdoors without access to a power outlet).
We’ll be interested to get a closer look at the Wahoo Blue HR Bluetooth heart rate monitor that will be officially unveiled at next month’s Consumer Electronics Sow. It will reportedly connect with an iPhone 4S as well as other devices that are Bluetooth Smart (4.0) ready.
