Hi Ibrahim - Sorry yes, that is true. I guess I was thinking more about the bad
reviews I keep seeing about alternative non-apple equivalents--maybe written by
Apple employees <smile> -

Hi Andy.
The dock connector is a universal connection which apple freely lets
manufacturers of cables, docks and other connection devices use. An Apple dock
connector cable can be had off EBay for a couple of quid, but if you want to
buy the official Apple lines then be prepared to pay for them.
All the best, Ibrahim.

- I think this is how Apple and the rest sting us for chargers and cables, by
putting their own unique connector on the device end of the cable. You can of
course source similar cables online, and this may be ok, but there are reports
of device damage caused by some of these alternatives -

Hello,
I want to connect my Ipod Touch to a television using a HDMI cable. I see
that there is one in the Apple Store for £29, however I asume I can buy any
HDMI cable (possibly quite a bit cheaper) or does it have to be from Apple?
I’ve never used a HDMI cable before. Does the cable go into the same slot as
the USB cable? Sorry if these seem simple questions but I want to check things
out properly before going and purchasing a HDMI connector.
Many thanks,
Kevin
