(More customer reviews)As a iPod user, I occasionally need to find one of the white usb cables to simply charge my iPod, and when a PC isn't handy, I need to find another source of USB power. I've gotten used to this limitation, but sometimes a simpler charging solution would be helpful. That's what this is for, but it falls short on a few levels.First what works:
* charges iPods, iPhones, and many models of each
* has a cool flush connector (not quite hidden) which become accessible due to the rubber surround giving way)
* lacks a polarized plug, so it can fit in any (vertically oriented) outlet
* offers just enough of a grip on the dock connector to hold unit steady against wall but is easy to remove
Here's what doesn't
* doesn't support many cases (due to the flush plug only providing minimal clearance)
* does nothing else and occupies the dock connector (no outputs, Bluetooth, etc...)
Those two negatives are huge. One eliminates many users (myself included), and the other many uses. By being immobile (which isn't so much an issue as a design choice), I need to either not use my iPod or be very close, and when I use my iPod in one place, I need either line outs for my stereo or Bluetooth for stereo or wireless headphones. That's where the second issue becomes significant, as the best way (not the only way) to use either involves the dock.
$10 or less likely would merit another star for users who don't mind the issues, but that's not what I'm seeing.
