At first I was wondering if the front usb ports on my sff shuttle case didn't output enough power to charge, only thing with that is the same ports will charge my ipod just fine.
I'd be interested to see if these cables are the problem or if they really aren't sync/charge cables and only sync cables.
I know for a fact mine isn't charging, because right now I'm just watching the battery level drop.

the ipod doesn't need nearly the amount of power that the x50 does. the x50 needs about 1.5 amps to charge and run at the same time. the usb port is supposed to be limited by design to no more than 1/2 amp (.5) so if your usb port is not as good as some then it may actually let it burn up instead of just not charge. be very careful here. search for the threads about how this works and you will find a ton of info.
