Here is an article announcing the Nike + Heart Rate Monitor: http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/08/polar-and-nike-announce-wearlink-heart-rate-monitor-for-nike/ . I just emailed Nike + at http://www.nike.com/help/us/#/contact-us about the Nike Heart Rate Monitor (HRM), here is that conversation:
My email:
"Hello. It's come to my attention that the Nike + HRM cannot interface with the Nike + software of the iPhone 3GS or the iPhone 4. This is literally a huge missed opportunity guys. So many people, including myself, use Nike + on their 3GS's and I'd like to be able to confidently use the HRM with Nike + on my iPhone 4. I understand it may take a while to develop, but you need to make this work. You're missing out on a huge opportunity for sales. Thank you."
Response:
"Thanks so much for bringing this to my attention! I am more than happy to pass this on.
Yes you are correct, the iPhone 3G S and the iPhone 4G are not compatible at this time. However I will definitely pass your thoughts onto our site developers letting them know that you would like to see it become compatible. We always welcome your feedback and we are listening. Nike's heritage is based on technically designed athletic products to enhance performance. It is through input from consumers like you that we are able to improve the Nike+ experience.
If you have anymore questions please let me know. I am here to help!
Keep Running,
Ben

Don't like this as I don't? Cool. They obviously are listening to customer concerns, so if you want this on your iPhone, EMAIL THEM and let them know! If everyone on this forum hammered them with an email requesting HRM support on the iPhone, they'd be remiss to ignore us. Again, email them here: http://www.nike.com/help/us/#/contact-us
