Customer Review: Apple iPod USB Adapter is a Necessity
Summary: 5 Stars
USB based iPod owners cannot rely on their computers as the only source for charging their iPods. The process is too long and a spare USB port is needed. Also, if you take your music with you while traveling, a means of charging your iPod battery via a wall plug device lets you skip computer based charging.
As a recent iPod Shuffle owner, I find this little charger ideal. Just plug it into a standard wall plug, connect the iPod to the charger's USB terminal, and CHARGE!
Customer Review: Very Useful!

Recharging using your computer is very inconvienent when it comes to traveling or...there's no computer around. So this device is very useful because you can recharge your iPod using the wall outlets! Like many users have written, they should include this accessory when you buy iPod, because it feels like a complete ripoff! I bought this in Best Buy for $39.99 last year and now the price dropped to $30! So Apple is really consumer-unfriendly! What's next? Car charger?Customer Review: Sub-par for the Touch

I paid less than this elsewhere but it's the same item. I use it to charge my iPod Touch and it hardly works. First off, you need to leave the iPod unlocked for it to work. Secondly, it won't give it a very good charge. If you let it go overnight, the battery meter will be full and then as soon as you disconnect it to use it, it very quickly drains down to 1/4, or sometimes less. Now I need to find something that actually works. Suggestions would be appreciated.Customer Review: Useful!

This power adapter means I don't always have to take my laptop when I travel -- my iPod Mini is chargeable on the road. The adapter also works better with the iPod Shuffle than the USB ports on many computers, which have a ridge that makes plugging in a Shuffle difficult. My only complaint is that I have to move the Mini's charger cord back and forth between my computer and the power adapter; seems like they could have thrown in an extra one.Customer Review: Overpriced ! Get the Sonnet instead at half the price!

I don't understand why people spend money on this charger, when you can pay half as much for the same thing. I bought an iPod charger for my 5G iPod video from Sonnet Technologies and I am very satisfied. It is small and the connectors retract for easy carrying around.
Search Amazon for "Sonnet USB Wall Charger for Ipod with USB-to-Dock Cable" at about HALF the price. It comes in black or white to go with the color of your iPod
