Re: iPod Altoids Tin Charger
I took a shot at building this.
My first attempt did not work, and thankfully did not fry my iPod.
It turns out that I connected the negative to the positive and visa versa. 
That's what happens when a ME tries to do something electrical.
So, when I plugged it in to the iPod, nothing happened, I suppose that was good.
I'm going to swap the wires around soon and try it again.
And if I get it to work with no problems, I may start selling a few of them. Maybe even one will show up on CD Swap.
