Works as advertised but not for travel [Posted on 2008-01-22]
I read many reviews for many Zune chargers before settling on this one because of its IC chip. The thing is, most of the "travel" chargers I have allow the prongs to fold up into the body of the charger so they don't get bent, broken, etc during travel. This item has fixed prongs and doesn't even go flush to the socket when plugged in because of a large black plastic reinforcement. Overall I'm a bit disappointed and next time would go with a folding wall-to-USB charger that would allow me flexibility to charge other items besides the Zune.

Not great... [Posted on 2008-02-02]
This would have probably worked well, if they had bothered to mention that it doesn't work with second-gen Zune 30's.
They probably didn't mention it because they don't know and refuse to admit that there ARE a second-generation of Zunes that, like the Zune 8 and 80's, don't work with the old Zune 30 accessories.
This is one of those accessories. So, if you've bought your Zune 30 since fall of 2007, don't bother. You'll complain that it doesn't work, they'll ask you over and over if you're sure you have a Zune 30, you'll tell them "yes", they'll send you another one and the process will repeat.
Works with my 30GB Zune [Posted on 2008-03-20]
At first, this charger didn't work and the seller (Vortex Cable) sent me another one ASAP at no charge for shipping. The replacement works good so far. It was able to charge my 1st Generation 30GB Zune. The product description says there is a built-in IC chip to prevent overcharging. I haven't experienced this feature yet as I keep a close eye when my Zune charges (only about 1 hour max at a time so I don't over-charge the battery because replacing the battery is more expensive than replacing this charger).
I would definately recommend this product especially at such a great price on Amazon.
It Just Works [Posted on 2008-06-12]
The Product Just Works. It charges the Zune and cuts off when its charged. Whats kinda cool is while its charging and ur playing music, the screen stays lit by default. Kinda Nifty. It does cut off when the music is done.
