 Must have for holidays March 22, 2006

We bought one of these before going to egypt in november and it was a lifesaver.
Best part about it is that you only take the adapter that's reqired for the trip not the full package and it's easily stored and keeps you connected to your music for the whole of the holiday.
Would recommend this product to any i pod owner.
FANTASTIC PRODUCT!!!!! October 18, 2006

What more could you ask for? A well packaged, great value for money iPod charger with the added bonus of being able to charging my cheap MP3 player and digital camera all for 15! I don't know how other people have found this charger so awful. It's fantastic. I lost the adapter and gear4 sent me another out next day free of charge. I'm sure if anyone else had a problem with a gear4 product then they would have sorted it for them. They were one of the best companies i've ever called with a problem. BUYING AN IPOD? BUY THIS PRODUCT!

I bought this with my G5 iPod and it didnt work, just bad luck I think, it was replaced and works great. The little international sockets are a good idea too, I'm going to Italy next week and I'll be able to plug into the wall without a socket adaptor, I'll fit RIGHT in!
It's a charger, it charges MY iPod, its cheaper than the Apple version.
World Tour kept my music playing October 13, 2006

I found this iPod charger was really useful when I went traverling. I don't know what I would have done without my music and as everyone knows, the battery life for an iPod doesn't seem to last long enough. So it was great that I could charge my iPod in the hostels that I was staying in America, and when I had to travel to each state in the east of the US, I always had a good supply of entertainment.
It was true value for money considering that the official iPod charger is the same price but with out any plug adaptors. Despite what these other reviews say, I would really rate the World Tour, I never had any problems with it.

This is a generic USB mains charger that comes with all of the adapters required to plug into any power socket anywhere on earth, it also feels well made and robust. So it can be used to charge just about any USB device; I used mine in Thailand to charge sundry cameras and three different iPods (iPod classic G6, iPod nanoG1 & G2). All worked well with no issues at all. I haven't tried it with the older G3 models of iPod (but these were replaced in 2004) so I guess you must take note of those that have had issues with theirs.
One criticism I have is that all of the various adapter plugs are separate and clip onto the main body of the charger when in use and there is no bag in which to store the unused adapters and keep it all together. A trivial issue I know but it gives me an excuse not to award 5 stars.
As for those people that have experienced sundry problems, the iPods have been notoriously dodgy on the interface site and there have been many updates to resolve sundry interface issues. I suggest that for those that have experienced intermittent problems, the more likely candidate for the fault must be the iPod itself.
I can only write from my own experience and mine is faultless, this charger proved invaluable and as such I can, based upon experience, recommend it.
