New to forum (looks great!) and I'm an idiot! Can anyone tell me where I can get a long (6 feet or more) USB cable to use with Verizon's Mobile Office? This is for use with a desktop on a boat and the computer is in a cabinet some distance from the desk. TIA

I reccomend getting a usb extension cable, as I'm sure it would be very difficult and more expensive to find a longer cable for the phone. I bought this one, http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProdu...-105-706&depa=0 and it works flawlessly. Enjoy!

I too use a USB extension cable and it works great for all of my USB devices. My computer has two USB ports in the back and none in the front which is a pain because everytime I want to switch devices I have to go into the back of my computer. A nice thing about the extension cables is that they will work with all of your devices and not just your phone. With the cable extensions I just unplug my device from one of the cables and plug another one into it. Windows recognizes the changes all the same as if I had done it in the back of the computer. Saves me time and hassle :-)
