Yeah, I don't think the remote cord A is at all necessary. You can use a standard, mechanical, screw-in cable release with the motor drive and the drive still works, unlike the ME2 Winder.
How on earth did you locate the Power Cord A?

Now you need a Motordrive-A. And top that off with a Power Cord A . Not a Remote Cord A, the power cord allows the battery case to be seperated from the very slim motor, and gallows a firm and centred tripod mounting, see: http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=2249457.
Alas, my "A" is dead, and its accessories are idle.
Despite it's larger size and the flatness of the grip (it lacks the finger moldings of the Winder ME-II) I always preferred the feel of a driven Super A over a wound Super A. The shutter release is also more instantaneous with the motor.
