Will my older Griffen ipod wall charger M#17B061001 charge my new iphone 3gs safely?
Thx in advance, I had limited luck finding this answer on google & apple site.

My guess is yes - (but I'd seek some confirmation from elsewhere before trying). My 3GS came with a mains charging lead without transformer, which means it's taking 240v straight, which in turn suggests that it can handle it, but as I say, I'd want to be sure.
I used to come here a lot.

I'd probably call an apple store or something before trying it if you can't find answer here. Or maybe try one of the iphone forums out there.

I read some accesories wont charge it because apple got rid of firewire on 3gs and some accessories use those connections - need to do more googling

Being the owner of 8 or 9 iPods and an iPhone 3G it's been my experience that if the connector fits in the device it will charge just fine. I have all the cables from these and third party companies including home and car and everything is interchangeable. Oh wait, did I take my medication today?

I know my wife has a griffin FM tuner/charger that charged her 1st gen ipod touch, but her 2nd gen won't charge. I think it has more to do with the software update than anything else.
