Do I need a receiver for Nike running

[APPLEFAN8]

Can I just buy a sensor because the iPhone 4 has a receiver built in right like the iPod touch 3rd gen?

Correct.

 

[APPLEFAN8]

Correct.

okay thanks

A warning, though: iOS4 has really screwed up the Nike+ app. Now, whenever you pause a workout and try to resume it, it simply runs the timer but won't log any miles. It's almost impossible to complete a workout this way.

This issue has been documented by many people on both the Apple and Nike+ user forums.

After having used and really enjoyed Nike+ for 3 years, I'm about to give up on the thing.

I was thinking about getting one of those too. Can you buy just the sensor or do you have to buy the little kit that comes with the receiver? If you can buy just the sensor, where at?

Sensor:

If you have a 3GS, 4, or Touch 2nd Gen then all you need is the sensor. The devices have a built in receiver.

Cool, thank you.

Hopefully they'll have an update soon for it. I'll just buy the sensor since I don't need the receiver.
