Need pin-out for USB <-> power adapter
 
I'm going on a trip and I *really* need to consolidate my adapters. Has anybody bought the USB to power adapter cable (http://www.simoncells.com/scripts/pr...&mtc=froogle)? If so, do you know what the pin-out is so we can make our own without blowing 30 bones on ********?

Thanks fellas,

Nick

Is $2.40 too much for you:

(Beware, I just ordered one but I don't have it yet, someone in this forum reported that this adapter burned, while others seem to have no problem with it).

If all you need is power, just connect + to red, and - to black. The red wire is always postive, and the black one ground. You don't need any other connections, they're for data.

I have one as well. Works well, but never _fully_ charges the N800. It does give it plenty of juice to run a whole day, however (at least for me).

I hope this helps,
