I'm sure i read somewhere in the forum that I'm not the only one a little bit concerned about the possibility of accidental damage to the usb slot for blue and me, but can't find it!
If someone remebers the link can you please post?
My main concern is having something quite tall like a standard usb stick connected and catching it accidentaly with the possibility of twisting it out of the socket and causing damage to the car - usb sockets aren't really that robust! Even repeatedly attching and removing a usb device may cause problems over time.
I've looked at a few options:
a. Leave a USB extender connected all the time (m-f short lead) so that the connector on the lead gets the wear and tear when using usb memory stick.
b. Leave a retractible ipod lead connected all the time and use my ipod instead of usb or sd with adapter.
c. Leave a mini card reader with short lead attached all the time and use sd, memory stick etc.
Do any of you have any experience or suggestions on what you use other than standard tall usb memory sticks?
Thanks
