Does anyone know if the Nike+iPod kit works with the new 2G Nano?

Mine hasn't arrived yet, but according to the Keynote speach, Steve Jobs said that they would work with the Sportkit as is.

I have nike+ipod, and new nano, nike+ shoes as well. they all work. don't worry. only difference is if you connect adapter with new nano, nike+ipod menu appears. but if you remove it, it will be disappeared unlikely old nano which is stayed on.

I just got mine today..... the nano keeps freezing up with the nike sports kit..... according to all literature, you need a 1.2 nano update, but the 2Gen nanos come with 1.0.1 I'm not sure if that is why....but like I said, mine keeps freezing right before I start a workout and have to reset(using hold, menu + center) to get out the screen. There are no further updates available for the 2gen. Either I got a bad nano, or their are glitches.

My sport kit worked fine with my old Nano. I received my second gen Nano yesterday, and the Nano cannot connect with the sensor. My Nano doesn't freeze; it just won't connect with the sensor. I am also using firmware 1.0.1, which, according to Itune 7.0, is the latest for the new Nano.

Any ideas? A new firmware, perhaps?

I just bought a 4GB nano (2nd generation). I'm trying to use my Nike+iPod kit with it, but I'm having a really hard time plugging in the Nike+ receiver into the nano connector. Seems like I need to use a hammer or something... Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a 2nd generation Nike+iPod kit I'm supposed to use with my new nano? Please advise.

No, mine went in. It was a little "tighter" but definately didn't have to force it in or anything.

Make sure you have the receiver right side up. One side works; the other does not.

I have the new 8 gb and have not any problems with the Nike+ or connections or anything.

i just got a new 2nd generation 4GB nano, i thought that my nike+ kit would work with my new nano as it did with my old 1st generation 2GB nano but when i plug in the device to the new nano nothing happens. Why won't it work?

I can confirm that you have a good ipod nano with a "bad" firmware.

EACH TIME I use my 2Gb ipod with the sport kit it freezes ! Without sport kit..no problem at all !

My ipod nano with firmware 1.1.1. freezes when:
- I press the end session button after a long session (in this case it maintains the training also after the reset). with short sessions..no problem.
- If I forget to not set the hold button during session, the armband "press" without control some combination of buttons which freezes the ipod (session lost after reset)
- If I press /<< button instead of menu to return to the previous screen at the end of the session. (session lost after reset)
- Without receiver inserted I have pressed to activate sport kit - ipod require the receiver - I have pressed to return to the previous screen and ipod freezes.

Why Apple doesn't insert a "timerized autosave data sessions" to avoid to loose sessions in case of freezing and reset ?
