I want a new USB/Charging Cable for my Mogul

I have searched on Ebay, but all of the ones they have listed as "HTC Mogul" compatible are just the "mini-USB" types. I don't want to have to plug into that big, clunky converter and then into my Mogul.

Can I get a USB wire that just connects directly between my computer and my Mogul? Without plugging into anything else in between?

I just want a small, thin cable for charging and syncing. I easily found one for my old Treos on Ebay, but don't seem to have luck with my Mogul. Am I using the wrong the search words or something? Can they not make one for the "proprietary" plug in port of the Mogul?

Color me confused. Thanks

K--

Mini-USB will plug directly into the Mogul. I've never used any of those adapters ever.

Uhm what? It's just a mini-usb cable. The "proprietary" portion of it is for audio.

your confused.. one end of the cable is 'mini-usb'..this is the end that goes INTO your mogul. the other is regular old USB, which goes directly into your comp. no adapter needed.

Re: I want a new USB/Charging Cable for my Mogul

LOL the plug looks different on the mogul.

I thought the very same thing when i first got mine, and I was using those retarded adapters to charge the phone, but no, you don't have to.

The usb plug works just fine without any adapters.

I actually went to Radio Shack to get an iGo adapter and it was just a regular mini-usb one but I was insisting to the rep that it wouldn't fit because of the shape of the Mogul's socket....yeah I felt like a moron when he opened it and plugged it right into my Mogul...

Re: I want a new USB/Charging Cable for my Mogul

Well Holy Moley! Color me silly! I had no idea such a thing could happen. Is this explained somewhere? I had absolutely no idea it could do that.

Learned something new. I wondered why all the "Mogul" cords had that same mini-USB thing going on.

So, why'd they bother with making the shape all funky if it didn't need to be?

Re: I want a new USB/Charging Cable for my Mogul

Like baffles said, for their audio output. I have like 10 of these cables lying around. MP3 player, old razr's, garmin/magellan gps, they are all the 4 pin mini usb cable.
The details/pinout for the EMU (Enhanced Mini USB) connector are in this thread, post # 10...
