Q: Does this, priced at £49.95 include the necessary cable, mentioned in the write up, to connect to an iPod? and if not do you supply them and at what cost?
A: The solio can be used to charge an i-pod using the supplied female usb connector tip and coupling this to the usb lead supplied with all i-pods (the same lead which is used to transfer music etc to the i-pod from your computer).
If however you wish to connect the solio direct to the i-pod (and leave the original i-pod usb lead at home) a dedicated adaptor tip can be purchased seperately, click here for details
