Thanks for putting up with my newbie-ish questions.

you dont NEED usb 2.0, it works on 1.1, just a LOT slower.
and for 25 or 30 bucks you can goto a computer store and pick up a firewire card to put in your computer an use. it makes a BIG difference, and i like it cuz it can be pluged into the computer and the computer will charge it at the same time on a firewire plug..........usb wont charge it at the same time.
and theres 2 types of USB, the normal rectangle one. and a small odd looking square one. i think the adapter is for the small looking square one. but i could be wrong.
