This one is pretty standard and can be found in every shop. I'm guessing you're talking about this one. - The second is a female USB A <=> freerunner. It's used for host mode (for example, plugging a usb key or keyboard to the neo. I've got no idea if it is easy to find that one in a shop. - The third one is the famous "Y cable", that is pretty much the same as #2 except it gets an additional male USB A connector in order to provide current to the neo (from any charger) while using host mode. It doesn't seem very straightforward to use (a three-way cable ?) but covers all the cases of cable #2 (hence it is more "universal"). It definitively cannot be found in a shop and I guess this involves a cutter and some dirty electronics to make one. I hope I'm making this clearer, and wonder what we can expect in the final package ?
