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

It's impressive the way retailers and manufacturers shoehorn the word "PSP" or "iPod" into sales pitches. But this time, the manufacturer Trixter has gone even further; managing to connect both the iPod and PSP into the promotion for its X-Bike 600 exercise bike!

Being 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.

Here is a picture of what it looks like:


So where do the gadgets come in?
In my opinion is it comes with a UMD (for the PSP) or software (for the iPod) that simulates a trail of mountain biking; or more realistically, it has speakers built into the bike for music while exercising.

What do you think?
