Lose weight using your iPod or PSP - with the X-Bike 600

I'm always impressed by the way retailers and manufacturers shoehorn the word "iPod" into sales pitches. Trixter has gone even further, managing to connect both the iPod and Sony PSP into the promotion for its X-Bike 600 excercise system.

Let's be honest, this is an exercise bike, nothing more. But worth a look if you want to get in shape. A 30-minute spell on the X-Bike 600 burns off 500 calories, using an action that replicates riding a mountain bike outdoors. So where do the gadgets come in?

x-box, x-bike.

I thought the whole magic of the PSP and the iPod is that they can go ANYWHERE. Unless that machine has a built-in charger and holder for both of them.

"Push down with your right foot. Good! Now, push down with you left foot. Great!" Set to repeat. Waste of $150.

I actually bought 2 bikes from good will for $10 each and they were well worth the money. one of them lasted me about 3 years, until i decided to get a real mountain bike. I gave the old one back to good will.
