USB Data Sync & Charge Cable For Apple iPod Shuffle (3rd generation)

• This USB cable connects your Apple iPod Shuffle (3rd generation) to your computer?s USB port for music and data syncing as well as battery charging

I bought two at this price and it would have been great if even one of them would have worked. When I called to tell them of the problem they said that they did not have anything that works on the 3rd generation.

These cables are so small that I misplaced mine, and since I only use the shuffle on rare occasions I was not about to go to the Apple store and buy a replacement. There were a small handful of products listed at the Amazon store but customer feedback said those limited number of products didn't work.

I took a chance and selected an external website called "The CellPhoneShop" Because the product was listed for only $2.99 (it cost more to ship $4.99 than to buy) I gave it a shot. Mail delivery was slow -about 2 weeks. But the product works as advertised. It syncs and charges the shuffle.
