BTW, Tan, that word is a fighting insult in the US no matter whatever it means
in OZ.

Actually I believe the Muvo is a standard 'mini-usb' socket - same as my
Flashtrax and a coule of other USB devices I have. About half of all
MP3 players use this socket. To be honest I don't understand why we
have full size USB device sockets when mini-USB seems to do the same
job...
It's a right pain that my other MP3 player and the *istD and many other
devices still choose proprietary sockets though - just makes no sense
whatsoever, except that they make extra money out of expensive
cabling....
The others are right - if you need to upload pics before you get meet
with someone who has a cable then bgo buy a USB card reader for $5-10
somewhere.
You are not a dickhead for forgetting something like that, I thought you
were going to say you forgot the camera or possibly the flash card -
that's what I would call a dickhead, that or Cotty forgetting the beer
or something!

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!!)

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.

yes, i am! here i was thinking i was little miss
organised, finally
got myself set up in my hotel room, here in LA, got online,
organised
my clothing/suitcases etc and then thought "i'll go and update my
online
travel
journal and download some of the pics i have in my camera..."
Anyone hazard a guess at what I left behind in Australia?
Yep, that's right, my *istD USB cable!! Then I had another
brainwave
and thought, oh, its ok, I have a pcmcia card reader in my
lappy - but
of course, tan has been using only the 4gb hitachi
microdrive and it
won't
fit
in the pcmcia card!!
grrrrrrrr!
So, my poor kids aren't going to be able to see any pics of
me until I
get my hands on a cable. Anyone have a spare that they will be
bringing to
GFM?
tan.
