Thanks heaps Bill! Yep, Shel - the USB cable that is used on the *istD is camera specific - as is the one that I use for my Muvo mp3 player. I have a universal one (such as that you are referring to) with me, and also the one for my Muvo, but my *istD cable is happily sitting at home in his little USB port attached to my PC back in Australia!
And I don't care what any of you say - I AM a dickhead for doing that! lol. btw, I think that as Aussies, we probably use the term in a much lighter sense that you guys in the US do. When I said that, it was totally tongue-in-cheek, as are most comments that Aussies make! lol. So funny, on the flight from Japan today there was about 12 young US Navy recruits and they kept saying "oh, you Arssees, you r accent is so cute!" I just know that I am going to have to give you all a crash course on how to say the word Aussie. Think Ozzy Osbourne, and you should be able to say it correctly... Repeat after me... OZ-ZZIE... Just like mozzie (mosquito), lol... tan. (i think i am a bit delirious - gonna try and get a couple of hours sleep before the Madonna concert tonight!!) -----Original Message----- From: Bill Owens [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, 28 May 2004 7:25 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: tan is a dickhead... You will be welcome to use my *ist D cable (if I know where it is) on GFM. I use only a card reader and CF cards.
