USB and FireWire Power Adapter, Firepod

Enjoy the convenience of powering your iPOD in your car and the ability to use a single charger for many FireWire powered devices. Also, the convenience of charging cell phones, PDAs, other USB MP3 players and even Gameboy Advance SP on the road with a USB charger.

The USB port of the Firepod is regulated to the strict standard of USB power specification; works with popular bus-charging devices such as USB link cable for popular portable devices (PDA, cell phones, etc). The FireWire port of the Firepod outputs a steady and regulated current that is identical to your Apple FireWire port, so you don't have to worry about battery-butchering power surge from accelerating and braking in everyday commute. Firepod is also bundled with the fireCable, a unique cable that provides universal FireWire bus-power without occupying any precious FireWire data port, great for PC iPOD user who is currently using a 6-to-4 Pin FireWire adapter.
