iPod 4G iPod with Click Wheel Restore Problem

[mcella]

Ok so I have a old ipod click wheel. I have come to realize that plugging in the ipod to a power adapter is part of the restore process. I dont have a power adapter. Is there anyway around this.

This. They're not expensive on the 'Bay.

i should add that you need a power adapter that supplies 5VDC at 1A. I plugged my 4G iPod into a blackberry charger (5V 0.5A) and it wouldn't budge.
