I really like this solution, but I'm reluctant because of the messy look of excess cable and adapters. According to eBay, the cable from Amazon is 3.28 feet. 
This seems to be another option from eBay:
New USB Female to 2 USB A Male Power Y Cable Extension
This cable measures only 11 inches, so this could make things a little more tidy. I'm also eyeing this power adapter that sits flush against the cigarette lighter socket:
Belkin Micro Auto Charger
Just thought I'd add a few more options for those motorers who want to try and keep things neat. |
Just wanted to let everyone know that this set up does work with the IPhone 3GS. Old (infamous) "Y" cable audio jack to the jack plug, Y cable USB end to the female end of the new Amazon cable with the two other USB ends going to the Mini USB port and the other to a cig. plug adapter. Only problems are: A. multiple wires B. my LED on cig plug adapter stays lit even when car is off. ( power from Mini USB), C. I have extra cables b/c I got a single to dual cig. plug adapter so can charge phone and run radar detector.
