Ipod not charging with JBL Onstage speaker

My ipod Photo has stopped charging when plugged into the v1 JBL Onstage speakers.

I don't think it was supposed to be compatible with the first gen ipod photo, but it used to charge fine, the only thing that has changed is the ipod software has been updated. I've tried reinstalling and restoring the ipod but no luck.

Anybody had the same problem or got a fix?

so sorry to mention that I am on your sides too, I bought 3 JBL Onstages (first gen), 1 for me and others for my kids.
All of them broke with 2 major problems:-

1. The plug of the 2 JBL broke, bad contact and cant charge
2. The volume buttons also did not work, cant increase or decrease the volume

I do not want to spread about it, but I did give a JBL another go, I bought the 2nd gen of JBL OnStage (with the remote), which is still running fine without any probelm

Thanks for that, I have heard various problems on the v1.

I think my connection is still ok, and the speakers still work fine but the ipod just won't charge...
