Current consumed by a charging Ipod

I’m building a ipod wall charger from scratch and the burning question was how much current does an ipod nano consume when charging? Well today with a quick test setup I found it to be 100mA. This is great news, the USB specification allows for 500mA on a port but the Ipod uses only a small part of it. Expect a circuit and/or tutorial of the charger sometime in the future.
