Hmm you're worried me. My ipod-mini is recommended for usb-2, but I guess that's for data transfer. I usually charge it with the usb-1 port of my ibook. Do you have any idea how much power it takes? Am I putting my usb port at risk? Could not find the info on the web, and apple removed the ipod mini specs since they're introducing the ipod nano...
