USB Cable

[Britman]

Hey guys,
Now I’ve never seen one but was hoping someone might have.
I’m looking for a USB cable that has the lead coming from the side of the USB plug.

Does such a thing exist?

Cheers.

There’s plenty of A to B cables to be found on google or A to A if you want to shop in the States. This was the closest I could quickly find:

maplin is prob the best place to try in the UK – I guess you’ve looked there?

Nice picture – did you make it lol 🙂

Hey guys, not tried Maplin jez, the movable one suggested by richardr are not really what I want.

Thanks.

Not sure, but monoprice.com is a good source for cables in the US – maybe they ship to the UK?

i did not know they made right angle usb leads.

that is cool and may be useful in the future.

The cable in the link provided by lozza69er is an A to B USB cable. They’re fairly easy to find on the web, just type angle USB in google. The only A to A angled USB cable I found was in the states, I haven’t found one in the UK.

I’ve been wondering if such cables existed myself. My only gripe with the USB ports being on the side of the NC10 is that the cables stick out so much.

I’m using a right-angled audio cable extension for my external speaker to avoid this same problem.
