Hi Bart,

As licenced vendors pay apple 10% royalty for use of the dock connector my guess is that some of them will give Mr Jobs & co a hard time about the dock connector compatibility issues.

Have to say I’ve had my Touch a for smidge over 2 weeks now (http://philbridges.com/?p=109 ) and the benefits easily outweigh the niggles, many of which will probably come right in later firmware revisions. Oh, and have you had a chance to try out eye TV with the Touch yet ? – talk about Slingbox for free….. awesome!
