[Dtb-talk] Flash Drive

[Mike Freeman]

I showed them the end of the cable that plugs NLS cartridges into the 
VRStream and the salesperson found an adaptor kit with various adaptors for 
digital cameras that connected to a cable with that female USB connector 
without the shield on one end and the male USB connector on the other. Cost 
about $36 but figured it was worth it for all the adaptors.
