Dension car kits are also approved by Apple, been using mine since August '07 for my iPhone, and iPod 2 years before that, and only pushes out 5v

I have that charger (from the Apple store) and it works fine for me (and I like the looks of it too).. I also have a Cheeep one (got it free with a case I got) it worked but.... Personally I just trust a better made, higher end, one.. Does that mean it will work better FOR SURE. No, but I feel that at least the cards are stacked a bit more in MY favor...

Meaning - You are feeding 12V ti your iPhone which requires only 5V! That's why some people have reported their iPhones either acting really funny or dying completely after a few days or weeks of use.

I didn't believe it at first myself until I did more research. I guess when Apple said make sure it has the "Works for iPhone" label, they MEANT it!
Quote from APPLE WEBSITE (Accessories section) -> Works with iPhone
Look for the “Works with iPhone” logo to find electronic accessories designed to connect specifically to iPhone and certified by the developer to meet Apple performance standards."

As for speaker/docks systems - Just because your iPhone has iPod capabilities, it doesn't necessarily mean that it is an iPod and can use it's accessories! BIG problems with JBL systems.

The reason it works with iphone is obvious......The thing is no more tha a usb wire and a usb to lighter plug adapter. Since usb cables can only transfer a lower amperage, I suspect any usb/lighter adapter witht he std iphone cable should work as well. I would avoid the ipod lighter plugs with no adapter as they fried my first iphone battery
