Default Ipod Shuffle adaptor

I picked up a Belkin iPod shuffle dock adaptor from Buy.com for $5 shipped ($15 - $10 Google discount - you can do as many of those as you have e-mail addresses, it seems)

The iShuffle (original - stick style) has a USB port with 9 pins - 4 normal + 5 for ??

I'm checking into what wires are what - at a minimum I can make a cable that goes from headphone -> "usb" cable for the shuffle. What I'd like to do is modify a Zune cable to add the extra signal wires and route power to the Zune.

Not sure how to get the ipod shuffle 9-pin USB connector without killing a shuffle, however... that, and I hear the Zune has some kind of handshake necessary for outputting audio through the dock connector ... ? Anyone?
