Bottom connector for XDAIIs

[s93ncer]

Does anyone know where I can buy the plug that plugs into the bottom connector for an XDAIIs?

I've asked everyone I can think of, searched Google, Maplin(UK) and Expansys and I can't find one. :cry:
It's probably because I don't know the correct name for it!

Ideally, I'd like one that has all 22 connections and even cables attached - they look really hard to solder onto by hand!

Any information would be greatfully received :lol:

Thanks

http://www.gomadic.com/connectors.html sells connectors
Wallaby, Himalaya are compatible with HP iPAQ Connector Plug Assembly (19/22/38/39/41/43/51/54/5500 Series)

but read that the plug of BlueAngel is not exactly the same.

I purchased an XDA II car charger from the O2 shop in Manchester - it came with a plug that works fine with my XDA2s - have used it on the car charger and on the supplied power lead - charges fine.

When I got my IIs, it CAME with the plug already, any standard car charger can plug right into that plug and then the IIs... You sure you guys didn't get it?????

I think you mis-understood me - I'll try again!

I have developed a complete installed car kit :D for XDA, XDAII and IIs that does the following.

Mutes stereo when in call and puts all sound to front speakers
Can put navigation commands through the stereo
Hooks up to external microphone
Has PS2 (Holux) and RJ11 (TomTom and Leadtek) GPS connections
Charges device

I'm trying to get hold of a connector with 22 connections because I have one problem left.
To switch the car kit on, I either need a 5V feed from the device OR need to be able to put 5V in on one pin and get 5V out of another.

If anyone can help with either the connector or letting me know which pins I might be able to use send me a mail please

Thanks
