Yup--As Kolenka pointed out, the adapters do exist. (Shopaholic, I sent you a PM about this.) I've got one from Scoshe that works very well.

I have 3 different generations sitting in front of me right now. Length & width are the same, yes. But the depth, screen size and touch wheel are different with each generation and necessitate the purchase of a different case because of it.

So, I don't know what you're talking about here but you're off kilter with your facts.

And as far as the connector goes, nope, not really the same either. I have a couple of sound docks for my iPods and while the connector looks the same, the internal mechanics of it are not. I also have an iPod Nano, 5th gen & it doesn't charge on any of the sound docks the way the larger Classic iPods do. It's the same connector physically but it has something to do with USB & Firewire internal connection. They don't charge on the sound docks because Apple decided to change it.

I went to the local friendly Apple store to look for an adaptor to make it charge on the docks I already own. The tool told me I had to buy new sound docks.

Buddy, my Bose cost me $400 a couple of years ago & is perfect working order I'm NOT spending that kind of coin because head office decided to change the guts of the connector on the Nano! sheesh

You are right about the iPods and iPhones. I am on my third iPhone and they are all slightly different in some way. Yes the connector is in the same place on all of them, but the size varies such that my iPhone 4 will not fit my iPod Classic case.

As for the Bose I have the same problem as you. It works fine with my iPod but the iPhone 4 is a non-starter. I found this site a while ago and keep thinking I must get around to getting the upgrade kit. It might be of interest to you too.

So the OP is wrong - no device manufacturer keeps things the same from old model to new.

Perhaps he wants to teach ALL of them a 'lesson'?
