Best AnswerIt is. In fact, Nike tried this technology before, and the problem was that the moisture was shorting out the sensors. This is why they went to Apple for assistance. It is also why these are disposable units: you do not replace the battery, when they stop working, you just buy a new sensor.

Best AnswerTo quote from the NikeRunning.com FAQ Section:
A treadmill is not a good place to calibrate your Nike+ sensor. Calibrating on a treadmill may affect the accuracy of the sensor for several reasons, including additional treadmill surface movement, incline, and resistance. Your stride can also change when you run on a treadmill.
Nike+ technology relies on a sensitive piezoelectric accelerometer that monitors your foot strike when you walk or run and determines the amount of time your foot spends on the ground; This contact time is directly related to your pace. So when you calibrate, you’re actually letting the software learn your typical walking and running gaits.- Answered by David P from Savannah
