USB host cable
« on: April 29, 2004, 09:10:53 pm »
I live in the Atlanta area and I have been to 3 Staple\"s stores and CompUSA and MicroCenter looking for the elusive mini-A to standard B USB cable.  I seems that not all stores carry it and it is still not on their web site.

The good news is that I have just ordered the following 3\' cable from BlackBox for $5.99.

Code            Qty       Total ($)     Description
MUSB01-0003     1         5.99          USB On-the-Go Cables, USB B Male to Mini USB A Male

When I get it I will let you know if it works.

I was at my local Staples yesterday, and I couldn\'t find the goldX quickconnect there either.

When I was there, I couldn\'t remember what it was I was looking for exactly.  I didn\'t think the store clerk would be able to find \"the USB cable thingy with 5 connectors\" in the inventory computer.
