I bought this product with the intention of using it to charge my iPod while travelling and not near a computer... It was quite perfect. Not only is it very small, the prongs fold into the body, but it is easy to use and worked great with a voltage adapter, as I was travelling internationally. Also turned out to be useful when someone in our house wants to charge an iPod without the risk of someone's computer altering songs. Overall great thing to have, and from amazon, it was about half as much as apple... more info
power adapter:
Fast shipping, works great, no complaints so far, im still testing it but overall great product.
Glad I bought an older version:
This came brand new and works perfect. I read reviews on the new versions of the adaptor and how people didn't like that the prongs don't snap back in so even though this older one is slightly bigger, I think it's better because it does have prongs that snap back in.
Be careful who you order from!:
I ordered from Mac_Pro_Online and did not get the USB cable. It wasn't even a genuine Apple. I returned it for a refund (still waiting) and ordered the real thing directly from Apple. The genuine Apple charger is an updated model, so I can't comment on this one. Just be careful if you don't order from Amazon because outside sellers think it's okay to sell something other than what's described just by putting a "comment" (which can't even be seen if you order from the featured seller).
