  • Answer to: Charge 2 USB devices with 1 charger!

    Even if you split the output to two devices sending 5W to each device, the iPad won't charge. It needs all 10 watts. It might RUN on 5 watts, but not charge. The iPod however will charge double-time with 10 watts, so charge that first.

  • Answer to: What distinguishes iPod Touch 2nd and 3rd Generations?

    What confuses me is that the tear down for the 2nd gen touch has a sticky mylar film under the LCD that can be peeled off while the 3rd gen teardown shows a metal plate with screws. Meanwhile, my 2nd gen 8gb touch has the metal plate with screws. This 2nd gen 8gb was a more recent version (still A1288) so was there an incremental update to the iPod infrastructure?
