Karen, No problem. I looked in my text copy of the manual, one huge file, for the word converter. That's how I found it. I remembered Jonathan or Dean mentioning something about a specific model, so that's why I doubt any of the cheap ones will work. $160 is still quite a lot for a cable, but better than the HW price.
BTW, I looked on www.dcables.com and couldn't find anything made by Edgeport. If someone else has better luck, I hope they will let us know.

I even looked before I wrote to the list but I guess I didn't look in the right place or something. Thanks a lot for the information.

There appear to be many adapters on that site, most of them for much cheaper, but I doubt they will work with an mPower.

He is getting an MPower in January and I checked with Humanware about their converters and they can sell me one for $235 but that's a lot of money for just a cable. I need to find one online but I don't know exactly what to look for. If someone could give me a model number or something to go on, I'll be good to go. Thanks for the help in advance.
