dockStubz+: 30-pin Pass-Through Adapter with side Micro-USB port and USB/FireWire charge conversion circuitry

Interesting device I want to try out (probably from Amazon.com: CableJive dockStubz+).
It is a 30-pin Pass-Through adapter for iPod/iPhone/iPad (lets call them iDevice).
Reasons to get one (or more depending on the number of devices/chargers you use regularly):
- Use the connector to connect a compatible device, while still charging through the side micro-USB power port on the adapter.
- Charge modern iDevice with old chargers and old iDevice with modern chargers.
- Put your iDevice in a dock even when you have a bumper or case around it.
A few pictures showing their use are below.
Basically, there are two verions of charging circuitry: USB based and FireWire based.
I will make sure to get the + version, as it combines these two:
dockStubz+ model includes charge conversion circuitry for those older docks and accessories that don’t charge while they are connected. Safely connect your mobile device to any dock and get the charging you need.
