Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Apple White Dock Connector to FireWire & USB 2.0 CableCustomer Review: Essential PC-to-iPod accessory cable Summary: 4 Stars
PC owners: odds are high that you need this to connect your computer to your iPod. Yes, it chafes that after spending several hundred dollars for a fancy digital music player, you have to drop another $20 or so for another cable, but that's just the way it goes.
The firewire end of this double cable connects with the AC outlet adapter and has the same functionality as the firewire-only cable packaged with the iPod. It's the USB end that connects to the computer. In order to synch up the iPod, you plug the USB cable into your PC; when it's finished and a checkmark appears on the iPod screen, you can unplug it again.
The cables are about six feet long, long enough to reach under a desk to the wall outlet or around to the computer. They come with cute little plug covers that snap onto skeins of cable.
It would be nice if there was some kind of retractable-cable option, or if the cables were a little bit larger-gauge.
Unless you have a firewire port, PC and iPod users will need this item to connect and synch their iPod.
(My experience comes from owning the 3d-gen 20 GB iPod with dock connector.)
