and if it would work with an iPod, would it do so safely?

My gut tells me yes.
My head tells me to ask the geeks' support.

Should work, but very poorly.

It's 5v but only 300mA. Would be a rather slow charge.

Thinking the same thing Grim. 500mA is what USB ports are supposed to be rated.

try this one, although I am not sure if the plug is foldable

I am 99.5% sure that the prongs are foldable on that one space-time. I have one from another source that is that exact same shape, and the prongs fold. It is in a cables-to-go iPod set.

and it is $9 shipped. A lot of the PC Microstore stuff that is small and lightweight ships USPS in padded envelopes for a buck each, or sometimes free. I get a lot of my cables from them for just that reason.

i use PC Microstore, but the stuff takes FOREVER to get to PA... like 2 weeks or so. :X

I have an Apple USB charger. Says 5v 1 Amp on it. According to their website, it'll work with ALL USB iPods. Normally sells for $30.

I'll sell it for $15 shipped. PM me if you're interested.
