    It's for the 'future'. At the moment it does nothing except charge your iPod/iPhone or any other device that can be charged via USB. +5VDC is all it supplies at the moment.

    My Sky+ box has no voltage coming out of the USB ports, seems not all Sky+ boxes have power in USB ports. Similarly for the Sky+HD boxes.

    Also, Sky Italia have found a use for the USB port - to add a DTT dongle, to allow some RAI channels back on their platform!
