2.0 out of 5 stars Does not charge the iPod when plugged into computer, only transfers data, July 10, 2007

By	Paul A. Tepper (Brooklyn, NY USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This cable transfers data, but it does not charge the iPod when plugged into your computer. If you want to charge your iPod using this cable it is possible, but you'll need to shell out an additional $29.99 for the Apple iPod USB Power Adapter. USB 2.0 data transfer works and the speed is comparable to firewire, so it does perform that function, but I don't understand why it doesn't charge when they make other USB cables that do! Lame.

If you have a PC, I'd recommend getting a firewire card for your computer and using that for data transfer & charging. I was doing that, but ran out of card slots and had to swap out my firewire card for another card - hence buying this cable. But this cable was disappointing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Expensive, but the way to go, July 24, 2007

Good cable & plugs -- durable, guaranteed for a year, et cetera. Don't waste your time with cheap knock-offs.
