I ordered one of these, and it wasn't an authentic Apple product. How can I tell? The usual slogan written on authentic Apple iPod products goes like this: Designed by Apple in California Assembled in China *
The fake cable, purchased here, doesn't have this printed on it.
Don't buy. Not "100% genuine Apple item" as advertised.

if you have an iPod mini, or a 4G or up iPod, then you will be wondering, Why should i get this? well, you shouldnt because this product is mainly made for 3G iPods, becasue the third generation iPod doesnt charge via USB, for it does the exact opposite, sucks the life out of your iPod. this lets you do what all the latest iPods can do, if you are a windows user, charges your iPod while conected to your computer. the only users who whould need this is for people with an unpowered usb port, for the latest iPods.
This is a cable that anyone could use. If you don't have a FireWire card, it's better to have this one in case you upgrade. Even if you do have FireWire, it's good to have this as a backup--what if you only have one FireWire port and you've got an external hard drive on it that you can't disconnect? The versatility alone is good, and the fact that it's relatively inexpensive for a name brand cable makes it a better deal.
Picked up one to charge my iPod at work: you should note that you can't use the USB to charge (3G iPod, at least) either through your computer or through a separate USB AC Adaptor. You can only charge through Firewire on 3G iPods. I made this mistake and have had to return parts. This seems to be a very obscure fact.
