Recently, I bought a little kit that contains one of these retractable USB cables and a wide variety of connectors and adapters. I think I paid around $13, including shipping, from a place called: http://www.usbgear.com Frankly, I don't recommend these retractable cables for day-to-day use because they're extremely lightweight and don't look like they'd stand up very well over extended use. If you're concerned about excess cable getting tangled up, just roll it up and tie it off using a couple of those wire twisty thingies that come on most packages of baked goods like bread or sandwich buns. ________________________________ From: bookport-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:bookport-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Dulce Weisenborns (Portland) Sent: Sunday, July 24, 2005 12:45 PM To: bookport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [bookport] Book Port Retractable Cable A friend of mine has a retractable USB cable he uses with the Book Port. Anyone know what it's called and where it can be found? Is there a special kind of cable needed for BP or will any off-the-shelf cable work? Dulce Muccio Weisenborn (DMW)
