Re: Can a regular Micro-B USB Cable be used to Charge and Sync?
I believe the problem is that the USB connection can only put so many amps or mAmps over the connection from the PC, but a charger can put out more mAmps.

For my Mogul I have a charger that has both. When I get the TP2 I will probably take a hacksaw to this apparatus to make the TP2 fit, but I got it cheap on eBay. So probably will be out of Taiwan in a week or so.... I was wrong, it already exists for $13.99. Put "touch pro 2 charger" into eBay search.

Bigger problem will be my car where I have a ProClip arrangement that dates from my 6600, took a year to get the right interface for the Mogul from them. The TP2 is "coming soon". I sent my contact there a query about expected dates.
