sorry to bring up old thread. didnt feel like opening a new one

im looking for a firewire-to-usb charger cable. as u might know, older ipod accessories with a built-in charger doesnt work with the newer ipods (after ipod touch 2g, ipod nano 4g n iphone 3g). so far i only know of griffin charger converter and scosche passport, but the griffin is discontinued and i dont know where to purchase either one locally. any help?

the reason is because im using an alpine head unit for my car, with the kce-422i cable. it works with my ipod touch 1g, but im planning to get an iphone 4 which wont be compatible. alpine has their own kcx-422tr but it is ridiculously expensive

yes they will cover for warranty. you can read more here: http://www.apple.com/batteries/replacements.html

any average joe who knows nothing about iphones / macs / batteries can work as a salesman at machines, so take their advice with a grain of salt.

u guys ask a lot about charging battery... if someone say u need to charge X hours and cannot charge when not full etc...would u really follow?

juz charge whenever it's convenient to charge, and stop charging whenever u need to stop. if u hv to go out but ur phone is still charging at 98%, dun wait for it, juz unplug and go. as katnl have mentioned, heat and empty drain is ur worst enemy.
