The new PowerLink USB Adapter for iPhone is a convenient three-in-one device that most any iPhone or iPod user would find handy. The PowerLink combines a USB memory stick for storing files, a 30-pin cable for syncing your iPhone/iPod, and a charger with a built-in rechargeable battery.
Take PowerLink with you for emergency power for your iPhone or iPod with 30-pin dock connector. It’s easy to use: Just connect PowerLink to your iPhone/iPod, and switch on PowerLink’s power. PowerLink boasts a 270mAh Lithium-Ion battery that provides 500mA powering current to the iPhone or iPod. That’s equal to about 25 minutes of talk time on an iPhone. (Note: The PowerLink does not actually charge the iPhone or iPod; it powers the devices as an external battery pack.) When it’s time to recharge, PowerLink’s internal battery can be charged from any computer with a USB port or through a USB power adapter. During charging, each LED takes approximately one hour to light up. It takes approximately three hours to fully charge the PowerLink’s battery.

Customer feedback:
1. This handy little device is a three-fer – a 2 gigabyte pen drive, an emergency battery backup, and a USB connector. The device is designed for use with an iPod or iPhone, and I personally think that it works pretty well. For connecting to a computer, it is a bit less bulky than the white cord, the 2 GB drive is very handy, and the battery backup is very nice.
Now, if you are expecting a device that will revolutionize your iPod or iPhone, then you will be disappointed. It’s a bit of a Swiss Army knife, and as with that widget, this one is not excellent at any of its features. But, what it is is a tiny thing that you can drop into your purse or pocket, and have a handy dandy tool for one of its three uses. As for me, I found this to be a very useful little device, and I am quite glad that I now have it.
2. If there is one thing I’ll recommend to anyone buying an iPod from now on, it’s this handy, little battery. It’s also a flash drive, which is great because you have two functions in one, saving even more space. The device is small, so you can pop it into your pocket or handbag pocket, and it’s incredibly handy to have when traveling. Your iPod or iPhone is out of charge and you are stuck on a train or plane? No problem: plug this in and you’ll be able to use it for a while still. And when you get home plug it back into your USB drive to recharge it.
There is a charge indicator to give you an idea of how much longer it will last, too. And for this price? A great deal!
