Not included (Rating: 5 out of 5) Had to buy this cable... It should have come with the charger. At least it was not so expensive.
Not for iPod with Video (Rating: 2 out of 5) The new iPods do not have the connections to work with FireWire. So this cable will only charge the new iPods with video. Besides this this is a good product for the iPods.
Works Flawlessly (Rating: 5 out of 5) The FireWire to Dock cable is not an exciting product but it opens up many possibilities.
- Connecting to a second Dock
- For connecting your iPod to another computer (either for file transfers, synching, charging or listening)
- Plug the FireWire end in to an iPod charger and you can charge you iPod on the go
Since all iPods come with the necessary cables for connecting it to your computer (Mac or PC), what this cable really offers is flexability. The ability to take your iPod anywhere and be ready for any situation without having to disconnect the original cable from your main computer set up.
I've been using this cable at work for over a year now and have had no problems with it. No carrying a cable back and forth and connecting and disconnecting it, now all I take is the iPod and I can connect to either computer. It's still working perfectly and allowing me to use my iPod the way I want to with the least amount of hassle.
