iphone and old ibook: work or no

Can I use my iBook with an iPhone?
Okay, I'm running 10.4.10, I've got iTunes 7.3, but this old iBook (14") doesn't have USB 2.0.
Will it still work? The Apple web site says I need USB 2.0, but they said that about my 2nd generation shuffle, and it works fine (charges and everything).
So, what gives? Will the iPhone work for me or no?

yes. (but it will be painfully slow)

Echoing the "painfully slow" sentiment. I had (still have, but don't use as much anymore) a PowerBook G4, and I got one of the newer 30-gig iPods (about a year ago). It took forever to sync the first time I connected it. Something like eight or twelve hours.
