is there a particular reason the 3GS doesn't charge while connected to itunes/my computer?
Do you have it plugged in directly to your computer, or are you using a USB hub?
Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

not using a hub. just plugging the usb cord directly into the laptop.
tiggy, your usb port might not be powerful enough to charge the iphone.
huh. well that sucks.
Tiggy -- is your laptop plugged in or are you running off the battery?
hmm...at first it was unplugged, but then i plugged it in when the battery started dying.
That might be it. My iPod speakers will charge the iPod but not when they're running off battery.
i'll try it again tonight with the laptop plugged in right away.
how about the second question? does anyone have an fm tuner that will charge while you listen in the car?
My router has died. I am connected to the internet with a cable. I am TETHERED!!! Anyone have a suggestion for a new router? I currently have (had) a D-Link DI-614+ 2.4 Ghz router. I live in a one bedroom apartment, so it doesn't need to be too powerful, I would think.
I've been using this one for about three years. The ones linked to upthread look good, but what I've got still works fine.
