Hey all,
Does anyone know of the cheapest place to find an a600/a620 charging USB data cable? Don't say "ebay" - haha... Or if anyone is selling one, gimmie a buzz at magicianstalk@hotmail.com (i have paypal)
Also, is there a potential of over charging the phone while it's connected to the data cable and computer?
Thanks,
Matt

I got mine at Thesupplynet.
12.99 for the cable, but 8 bucks shipping!
USB Charging though, no one has them locally.
When it's connected, there's no way to power it as well, the port is almost completely blocked.

there are usb cables that charge at the same time. I used to have one for my 8100 and it worked great.

Yeah, the one from Thesupplynet is a USB cable that charges off usb power.
After rereading my post it isn't extremely clear.

I just picked up a charging data cable for my sanyo 8200 for $7.99 shipped. It seems to be better quality than my old futuredial cable. It's about 3 ft long. Hope this helps those who are looking for this type of cable. Oh, the site where I got it is called 123usb.net. Later!

technically, there isnt a cable out that will charge your phone while still enabling connectivity to the internet that you can find under $40-$50.
however, i happen to own a samsung a660, which uses the same port as your phone. i bought a data cable and modded it myself to run off of the usb port's +5V DC, and it works perfect. You can't tell that it's been modded unless you take the phone end of the cable apart. It looks just like a normal data cable.
I would be willing to buy cables, and mod them, and ship them for $35 each. this cost includes shipping and handling. please note, this ONLY applies for the samsung A6xx series phones.
