Hi everyone,

You've all been a huge help the past week as I step into the Smartphone world

So, for the heck of it, now that just realized that the USB computer cable not only transfers data but ALSO charges the phone, I thought I'd pick up a second cord for the office. Most of the sites I look at out there indicate the new AT&T version is a MICRO-USB connection (including the manual). Can you guys just confirm this for me before I buy a cable?

Also, what's up with some of the rediculously low prices out there on accessories? Check out this one from Amazon.com --> http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-Mini-...6552901&sr=1-3

The only weird thing with that one is that it says it's for the Q, but it's MINI as opposed to MICRO, but that was just a general example. Was the previous Q (with Verizon) a MINI USB instead of MICRO?

Is there anything wrong with buying these extremely discounted items? I can't imagine one USB cord to another makes a difference. What about batteries that are only a couple of dollars...any problems there?

Thanks again for your help everyone!
