Would they connect it to the earphones or to the FW-port?
If you have a look at an iPod's connection thingamy for the headphones you'll see it's a bit different when compared to normal 3.5 mm jacks. The extra pin/contact is for information, like FWD/RVS/PLY/STP etc.

And you need one becasue you don't have one now. The 'why do i want one' is a bit dismissive. I didn't need a CamCorder until i borrowed one. But then truthfully I only need food, water and shelter, rather than a career, house, G4. iPod
