Maybe there is another cord out there that I can use, but I haven't seen it. I am tempted to get another regular Gameboy Advance (non SP) so I can use it solely for the connectivity.
One the official one? I have a Nyko one that I use for the cable, and the morning I got the SP, I went downstairs for some hot Connectivity action.. but the L and R buttons were pushed down. I pondered buying the official cord, but nah.. there aren't really any games that use those buttons, are there?

Anyways, if they're supposed to be pressed down.. then I won't need to buy another one just for FF:CC.

Don't buy another cord untill you really need one. I think rottwylor said that the buttons got covered and not pushed down...
