Hi-Fi, Sync, and Charge at your Fingertips with PocketDock Line Out Mini USB

When Apple introduced the redesigned iPod in early 2003, users praised its slimmer, more elegant design. But this improvement came with one catch – doing away with the standard FireWire port and replacing it with a new dock connector meant that the accessories that used the Firewire port, such as chargers, were no longer compatible. And instead of being able to use any standard Firewire cable to sync and charge your iPod, you had to make sure you always carried a special dock cable with you.
