4.0 out of 5 stars Useful product, but..., December 26, 2007

True, this charger will charge multiple devices, but...

1. Individual cables are not labeled as to what device they are for.

2. The charger lights do not go out when the device is charged. I can see how you might overcharge some devices because there is no automatic circuit that detects when the battery is fully charged. Such "battery full" circuits are almost always present in chargers made for specific devices.

3. Unless you buy an adapter specifically for the iPod, the USB adapter still requires an iPod charging cable, which you may already have.

I'm not saying that the Chargepod doesn't do what it's supposed to do, but you should note these caveats.

Oh, is this a cool gadget! I love how this looks on the counter and it frees up plenty of plug space. I asked about this gadget at Best Buy and the folks there didn't even know what I was talking about. Please note: you must purchase the item-specific adapters (sold seperately) to "plug in". Any unit that is plugged in will light up blue so you know that it is charging correctly. You will love this neat little gadget; get one before they are sold-out.

Please see my review for this item under the link where it is sold as part of a starter pack, which may make more sense for you to buy than just the unit alone(in which case you will have to buy separate adaptors for each gadget that you want to use) depending on your needs.
