Our solution to the iPod power conundrum!
We have the right cable
to allow your original or new iPod to connect to a Windows
notebook computer and get power at the same time! The 4 pin FireWire
receptacle on most Windows notebooks does not transmit power. If you use
your iPod with one it will drain the batteries and not let you recharge.
With this
cable you can get both data and power
connection to your iPod.
The new iPod ships
with a FireWire 6 to 4 pin adaptor which lets you connect it to Windows
notebooks. The problem for the iPod is that it can’t get power with that
way. This is shown in the following photos:

Although there are many
ways you can get power for the cable, the most convenient way is using the
AC adapter included in the iPod package and a
6pin to power plug cable to plug into the cable to provide
power to your iPod.

The following are some examples of other power sources you can plug
into the cable: NOTE: we do not sell the power adapters below, they are
