Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I assumed it would have a cord myself, but my mother says it does not (I am not watching her do this). I have several mini-usb cord, so I can probably send her one.

Sophia, I got a card reader at like, best buy or target for I think $6. So if she's got a card, that might be easiest.

There is neither a card nor a cable, which seems odd to me! It at least seems like that would have come up in the reviews, etc, especially since I was really looking for something that would be simple to use so my mother can take pictures of her cats and share them on Facebook!

So the options are either buy a card and a card reader OR buy a mini USB chord?

Thanks again!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

You're going to need a card, whether or not you buy a card reader.

Also, it's entirely possible your Mom's computer already has a card reader built in.

I really think it comes with a card too! But I have ordered a card, a card reader AND a cord all for about $25.00 and have had it shipped to her. I should have opened the box and figured it out first, because trying to do this from a distance is difficult.

Also, any ideas on why my mom's printer isn't printing. She says it isn't the ink, but the paper goes through and nothing prints out.

[link] suggests it does not come with either a card or a USB cable, which is odd.

[link] claims that the USB port is a "Hi-Speed USB (Dedicated connector female) with unified type of digital, audio and video)" so I wouldn't be completely sure this is a standard USB connector.

I'm trying to find somewhere that says definitively one way or the other.

eta that Sophia did exactly the right thing with that order.

This says it's mini-USB.

It sure does. They must be throwing some extra pins in the for the AV cable.

This camera is sold without a memory card but requires one for use. How lame.
