Ibook 500mhz AV cable its compatible with the iPod AV cable?

Last Sunday i've found an old cable from my old ibook 500mhz: http://www.mac-pro.com/s.nl/sc.2/category.114/it.A/id.1383/.f
Do you think it will be compatible with the ipod video that im waiting? (yes, because im from portugal and need to wait a lot for all the new mac products...)
the jeck 3.5 connection seems very similar.
Thanks a lot.

No the jack is wired differently :

If you are prepared to cannibalise the cable you can get it to work but it's not as tidy as the Apple supplied cable.
Generic A/V cables may work if you get the RCAs in the right place, e.g. cables suitable for Sony camcorders work if you swap the Video (Yellow) and Right Audio (Red).
I think that's what the previous poster was referring to.
