iPhone/iPod Touch users beware
(2 out of 5) by ivanski on Feb 18, 2009 (San Francisco, CA)iPhone and iPod Touch users should be very careful with this product. It's not a full replacement for the Apple cable - in particular, it will not charge reliably. Instead, you end up with the device going off and on charge mode repeatedly.

Better than Apple
(5 out of 5) by DuckFat on Sep 17, 2009 (Virginia)This cord is longer and seems heavier duty than the one supplied by Apple. Works fine with my iPhone 3GS. The phone side connection is plastic on the part that inserts but the whole piece is beefier and I think it's well worth the price. It's nice to have a longer cord sometimes.

iPod sync and charge cable
(5 out of 5) by Jon Cverna on Feb 2, 2009 (Warren, OH)This cable is very well made, complete with push-button locks to secure it to the iPod. The extra length is something that is a real plus for me, since I can more easily reach the AC to USB charger I have plugged into my electrical outlet.
This cable worked out so well for me that I placed a return order for a second cable.
This is not a genuine Apple cable, but in my opinion it is better than what Apple supplies with the iPod.

Very nice cable for the price
(5 out of 5) by D. Adams on Jan 21, 2009 (Lexington, NC)I was given an ipod Mini with no accessories, so I wanted a very cheap/basic cable to play around with the device. Most stores don't have such cables for less than $20, so less than $10 is quite a nice deal.
While I've never had an ipod, so I can't compare this with an actual apple sync cable, I can say the quality is beyond my expectations. Everything fits together nicely and plugs into the ipod without any issues. I did try a Belkin plug earlier and it was very stiff. I was a bit disappointed when I saw the ipod end was plastic, but this should do just fine. It's probably also partly why it fit into the I/O port easier than the metal-tipped Belkin cable.
All in all, a wonderful spare or replacement ipod sync cable.

Does what it is supposed to do
(5 out of 5) by P. Richardson on Jan 15, 2009Two feet longer than the Apple cable, and thicker too. Apparently Apple no longer ships cables with little "latch hook" mechanism either, which this has - at least the cable that came with my iPod Touch doesn't have it, and neither does the replacement cable that I got from the local Apple store.
(My cat likes to chew wires, so if I get a bit careless I find myself in the market for new cables. I *really* like Bluetooth.)
