Well, might also be a quality thing.  Then again, I bought a splitter 
cable off of Amazon for my Blackberry & headset so I could charge both at 
the same time (the headset didn't come with USB charging cable).  Cost 
was about $0.95, and I got free shipping.  And it works.

New iPod battery was about $7 including shipping.  Previous one I bought 
cost more like $15+tax.

"Tax on stupidity" = lottery.  Or on "people who can't do math". :-)
