The nike + system with the nano is awsome. It will tell you how fast you are running and keeps all you stats. Plus when you do a personal best you will get a message from Lance Armstrong telling you what a good job you are doing. Plus you can upload your stats and it will compare yours to others that have the system.

Been using this for the past month and a half, the wife has been using this 2 months.
Pretty cool stuff. Accurate too as far as distance and pace once you calibrate it. Workouts by time/distance/calories. Push the center button on the Ipod as you run, a voice comes on tells you your speed/distance/and pace. Lance comes on after your workout if you set a personal best, or offers you a deal on some performance enhancers or a local blood doping contact for a decent deal. Others pipe up to, depending on what you accomplished...my wife's heard them, I haven't.
The Nike + website that tracks it all is basic, giving you history of your runs, but I bet that will get a bit more advanced over the years, so you can analyze the runs a bit more in depth.
Don't get suckered in by the Nike+ shoes, they just have a hole cut for the chip under the sole insert. The Running Room has a shoe wallet that attaches to the laces (and can hold the "chip", as well as house keys), and now even a little plastic case big enough for just the "chip" that also attaches to the shoes.
