Also good to have a Charge-only cable when traveling if you ever use a ‘charging station’. (Black hat IIRC had a demo/example of a ‘free charging station’ that also did data grabs)
That’s an added great point! this cable set for power/charge only prevents any unauthorized/unexpected data scans, etc. Thanks!
How are those Thunderbolt cables coming along? :-)
Aw snap MacRat….but for sure when we do offer them they won’t be $50… ;-)
I look forward to OWC 12″ thunderbolt cables as I use a lot of FW800 12″ cables for daisy chaining drives.
I would also be handy to go with a OWC thunderbolt (+FW800, USB, HDMI, eSATA) hub that would fit under a Mac mini. :-)
Does anyone have any idea what the throughput of Apples 30 pin connector is? *cough cough thunderbolt cough*
480MBit… basically limited to what USB 2.0 can do, which is theoretical max of 60MB/s – but I don’t believe Apple’s devices get close to that… and not sure they’d benefit from Thunderbolt (talking iPod, iPhone, iPad) if not currently maxing USB2. But even if we said that those devices were being limited right now, Thunderbolt would be very expensive to add and also require increased device size as well. While likely will see some other connection replace the 30 pin in the future (Magsafe w/data perhaps), I don’t think going to see Thunderbolt implemented on the iDevices any time soon.
