Hmmm, now that you've questioned it....What the heck IS this cord for?! Heck if I know. I THOUGHT it was the ipod cord but now I see a wider connecter that is definately for the ipod. Not sure what this skinny one goes to. Maybe a camera?! I guess the point is, are all charging cords interchangable. If it fits should I use it? Or should we stick with using the "right" one?
