  FYI, the double-headed USB cable thing violates the USB spec.  It
happens to work many times, but it also doesn't work not infrequently,
and when it doesn't work you can't really do anything about it since
it wasn't supposed to work in the first place.  So if you do get one
of those, make sure it at least has the *option* for external power,
so you can eliminate the USB power question from the equation.
