so i recently got an ipod touch over the holidays, and im sitting there playing with it when an idea pops into my head...this should have the most amazing dock ever. thats when i came up with the idea of using a PS2 controller as the dock.
i did a lil research and found out that there is already a tut for making the controller into a dock, but that doesnt cover what i want to do.
i want the dock to hace a notification LED & built in amp + 2x speakers [one for each channel.
for the LED im going to run it in series with the red cable from the usb cord. so it will go:
BWGR
| | | |
| | | =()<-LED
| | | |
this way the LED only lights up when the touch is docked.
the amp and speakers are going to be based on this schematic VVVV

each speaker is going to be roughly an inch in diameter.
the amp is going to be run off of coin cell batteries. there will be two cells [1 cell=3 batteries in series] and the two cells will be in parallel
