Apple got rid of the power supply with the FireWire cable, I think. I don't mind these cost savings, but I do wish i could still sync via FW.
All iphones come with the power supply. Don't know why this seems to be an issue. Yes, if you want to have two cables you need to buy another cable - reasonable. Also, as has been pointed out, if you have an old iphone charger, either FW or USB is works on the iphone.

I guess I wasn't clear. I was referring to the iPod's lack of a power supply, lack of FW (it originally came with FW, then with both FW and USB, and then only USB) and the inability to sync via FW.
Memory Effect explains the effect of overcharging. I can't find anything on the partial charging. So I might not be right about the partial charging thing, but I the overchanging is documented.
Most popular assumptions about battery behavior is outdated, memory effect is with battery chemistry that is two or three generations old.
As far as I can tell, the main thing you need to worry about with lithium based batteries is to not overheat them (as in a baking car-sauna) or let them be discharged for too long.
AN iPhone...AN iPhone...For Gods sake it is a device, an inanimate object, and it is the general name of a device, not a specific one: if for lord knows what reason, you name your iphone....lets just say, chips: then you would say "when chips..." but if it is just a general product, you say "when an iphone..."
I am far from a grammer nut but I see this all over the net and it pisses me off
Clearly you aren't a grammar nut, or else you'd know how to spell grammar.
There's noting incorrect about referring to a product without its article, whether it be iPod, iPhone, iMac, Macbook Pro, etc. It's pretentious, to be sure. But not incorrect grammar. It's just a marketing technique to make something sound more important than it is.
"Say hello to iPhone" sounds more majestic than "Say hello to the iPhone."

Also, you don't want to recharge LI or LiPo soon after discharge as they're still hot and could puff if you're not careful.

My iPhone came with a power adapter; USB cable and dock. More than Apple usually gives bundles with their products, except for the Mac line.
