A store that sells through Amazon has replacement UC-E4 cables for
$3.70, about $20 less than the same cables Nikon sells. These are the
cables that connect your computer to your camera via the computer's USB
port and the camera's "small" USB port.

That would be called the micro-USB port.

Yup. And they are very common. I have two or three.

I ran into those the other day - I never even knew the camera had a
mini-usb port. Go figure.

Also found out they make mini-drives for CF and SD cards - didn't know
that either.

I need to do some reading up on this stuff. :)

Downloading directly from the camera through the USB port is
significantly faster than my PCMCIA CF card holder or an external card
port that attaches to the computer's USB port.
