 It's a good cable but make sure that THIS is what you need August 19, 2009

This is the most common USB cable these days for connecting 'something' to your computer but... beware of the 'Micro-B vs. Mini-B' interface confusion (read below).
On this specific cable, everything is done right, including the price. It is USB 2.0 certified, meaning that it supports data transfer rates of up to 480Mbps and, if your device accepts a Mini-B plug, this is the cable to get. Maybe the 2-meter length (6+ ft.) is a little bit too much but it does not bother me a lot and there may come a time when a cable this long may come in handy.
I am awarding this item 5 stars for price and quality - there's nothing to complain. However, I suggest that you look around before you place the order because you just might have one of these already as they tend to ship with many electronic gadgets these days.
______________________________________________
Notes:
Anyone in the market for a USB cable should be very careful because there are at least 6 kinds of USB connectors. If you are buying a cable that connects 'something' to your computer or laptop, the computer end of the cable will always be a USB-A or 'Type A' connector. At the other end, you may have a USB-B/Type B - a nearly square shaped connector used mostly to deliver power to a device but this is rare. Most likely, you will have a Mini-B or a Micro-B. The difference between the 2 is that the Micro-B is half as thick while the width is the same - Mini-B is 3x7mm while Micro-B is 1.5x7mm.
If your device (phone, PDA, camera) is a 'new' one and it's using USB, chances are that they will need a Micro-B connector because the industry seems to be adopting the 'Micro' form factor as its standard. If the above sounds simple, you should keep in mind that some devices require Mini-AB or Micro-AB connectors, also known as USB OTG (OnTheGo) devices.
My advice: before ordering any cable, make sure that you clearly understand what type of cable you need.
Whenever in doubt, do some more research and keep in mind that the 'Micro-B' (very small) is the emerging standard and it's likely to be found on the newer and smaller gadgets - phones, cameras, etc. but, before it we had the 'Mini-B' (this specific cable) so the older devices will need the 'Mini'.
good cable, no need to pay for some brandname March 28, 2008

I use these cables for connecting MP3 devices and such, and also for connecting my Razr cellphone, using the Motorola Phone Tools software on my computer. (Note that for the latter purpose, you can actually use Bluetooth if you want to, and have the capability on your computer.)
Cable works perfectly, no problems or hassles. Construction quality is good. This is pretty basic technology after all.

The 2M USB 2.0 A/Mini-B Cable I ordered from Amazon SuperBlueTech arrived quickly, was 72" tip to tip, and works well.

This USB to Mini-USB cable does what it is supposed to do, and when I purchased it, it was able to ship with Super Saver Shipping on a larger order, making it a really great deal for the price.
I bought this for charging a Playstation 3 Dualshock controller, and it works great.
all right by me !!! July 27, 2009

This mini USB to USB 2.0 cable works perfectly when I need to connect my Garmin GPS to my PC's USB port. This is particularly useful for Garmin's GPS online product registration and map update downloads. The quality of the cable is rather good; it just plain feels well constructed and it has never failed to work for me; I have no complaints about this product. Although another reviewer wrote that their cable was shorter than the 6 foot length that is advertised here, mine is just about 72 inches long.
Some other cables will cost you more but you'll get the same quality as you will with this cable. I can't see why you should spend more so I highly recommend this item.
