works with 2.2.1 on first generation itouch, October 7, 2009

Plugged it into my dvd/vcr front, put it on vcr, put it on L1, plugged the touch in and it worked. Enough said. Great price and it works. Just don't upgrade the firmware and you're set.
Apple can shove it, September 21, 2009

Doesn't work. The product is fine, it's Apple tweaking their software to intentionally not work with anything but their own $50 (are you NUTS Apple?!) cable.
I would have loved this for my iPhone, but now I'm seriously looking forward to the day I can dump this POS and pickup an Android phone. I knew there was a reason I've always hated Apple. :(
This thing blows, August 31, 2009

Tried with two different ipod touch 2g - 1 with firmware 2 and other with 3. Video did not work with either, just audio. I bought a belkin cable and it worked perfectly. I have heard Apple may block certain products or whatever, but Apple does not make vendors claim their products work with Apple's stuff. Simple fact is that if a manufacturer puts it in the description, it should live up to it. So, based on that, this thing blows.
Generally works fine with one issue, July 30, 2009

W. ChoOverall, this product works great with my Ipod Touch (Firmware 2.2). The set up was easy and displays the video on the TV. Overall, the video clarity and color is good.
My only issue with it is the video playback during scenes that have rapid movement. The picture gets fuzzy or digitized as I call it.
Other than that, the price makes it worth buying.
USB charging only, July 26, 2009
By
A. SmithThe A/V part of the cable works fine with my Classic 160gb and outputs both audio and video. However, the USB cable ONLY supports charging and does not support sync or other USB functions (useful if you are planning to use this to attach to a car with built in iPod controls). If all you need is charging then this would work fine, but for full control you would need a different cable.
