Third party car charger/sync cable?

---

The prices on car chargers (70 dollars) and sync cables (35 dollars) in Norway are hysterical. Talk about blackmail! So are there any third party stuff yet? I haven't found anything on eBay as of yet.

I can't believe that they didn't find space for a regular USB mini on the thing!

(Oh, in case anybody should wonder: This is the pink version, and it goes sooo well with my manbag! :roll: ) (OK, kidding. It's for my wife, and it's kind of hopeless to use TomTom without a car charger!)

Mastiff!

I think the same in regards to the stupid decision to use proprietory USB connector... BUT and this is good, I have today found and ordered the following : http://www.expansys.no/product.asp?code=137745
This is simply a little cable that converts the stupid connector to traditional mini USB, and since the device needs te same power in volts (5V) I am going to able to use my car charger for MDA PRO


P.S. I have no IDea how much are 55 Norwegian Crowns in Euro but mine on the dutch Expansys site costed me 8 Euro (and another 8 for shipment, Lousy bastards)

WOW Mate I have just looked how much would be the price with shipment and it comes to 236 Crowns, dude how much is that (for a small lousy cable)

A lot... Not as much as you'd think though. It's around 40 dollars, so I could live with that. But when Expansys has got them, they'll very soon surface on eBay for half that price! So thanks a lot for the tip, now I know what to look for! then again buying three of those only costs 25 dollars more (400 kroner or 66 dollars), so I may do that. Thanks again!

Edit: There's already one on the Bay! http://cgi.ebay.com/Car-Charger-for-...QQcmdZViewItem 20 dollars with shipping ain't bad!

I'm sure some headphone adapters will follow soon as well.
