While it’s convenient that the iPhone and the entire iPod line (minus the old-school firewire versions) can recharge over USB, I’m sure at one time or another we’ve all been in the situation where you connected your device to someone else’s computer to charge it, only to have it try and sync with their copy of iTunes. But the Sync Blocker cable solves that problem with a simple switch that can be set to charging & HotSync, or just charging. It’s just $12.99 from USBFever.com and supports all of the iPhones and iPod Touches, as well as the more recent versions of the iPod Classic and Nano.

If nothing else, this will prevent my Windows box (which doesn't have iTunes) from popping up that dialog asking me what I want to do with the device I just connected.
“I see you've plugged in a phone. Do you want me to open Word?” Yes Windows, that's exactly what I wanted you to do.
I've been waiting for something like this for a long, long time.
