Why is it that people blast the iDevices for lack of the "standardized mini-usb port"? I took a look at the 30-pin Dock Connector wiring diagram.
Apple iPod, iPhone (2g, 3g), iPad Dock connector pinout and wiring @ pinouts.ru
USB Data (for sync)
Firewire Data (likely legacy tech)
Charging
Stereo Analog Audio Out
Stereo Analog Audio In
Composite Video Out
Component Video Out
VGA Output
HDMI Output
Apparently Dell has a connector like this as well for the Streak, but appears to have added USB 3 and DisplayPort as the replacement for FireWire, while still supporting USB2 as well.
What can a mini-usb port do? Charge and sync.
I for one like these all in one cables.
