Cheap Micro-HDMI cable?

Has anyone found a cheap Micro-HDMI cable yet? I usually buy my cables from Monoprice.com, but they only have mini-HDMI cables, no Micro yet. $30 from Sprint seems rather expensive for something that will soon be about $6 from monoprice.
Just curious if anyone else has found some online yet.
Bummer that the EVO uses Micro USB as well, would have preferred mini usb..oh well.

I emailed monoprice about carrying Type D micro HDMI cables, and they said they'd have them available "soon", so that's what I'm waiting for.

Sweet! That's great news. I'll have to keep an eye out for them to show up in stock. I think I'll pick up a few micro-usb cables at the same time (one for the desk, one next to the bed, and one in the car.)
If you see 'em before I do, share in forums that they're in stock eh?
Thanks!

ive seen them for as low as $13, not a bad price. im waiting to see if they have a video dock similar to the zune hd though.

Sprint and Best Buy internal memos have both shown a hdmi dock, just not available at launch.

Good online reputable/cheap store for accessories?

So I went to my a local electronic store (that shall remain nameless) and wanted to get a few accessories. When I asked for a USB mini to micro adapter and they wanted $14 for it (should be around $5). I decided I need good place to get a all those little cell phone accessories online. Anyone know of any good ones? Looking for things like a hard case for it (body glove or other), the usb adapter mentioned above, retractable cable, 16 gig micro usb, things like that. I want to be able to get them all in one place. I could use some sound advice... going a simple google search gives me some sketchy places, and newegg does not carry it all.
Thanks

Don't know if they are good, but going to give them a shot

I always use eBay for most of my accessories, they're usually the cheapest.
My friend works for www.wirelessemporium.com But they still have a very limited selection of accessories for the EVO.
For misc. cables and stuff, I always use www.monoprice.com

Seconded for Monoprice. If you don't mind waiting, you can find some stuff on dealextreme.com

Another vote for monoprice on any cables. I picked up two 3' micro usb cables, two 10' micro usb cables and two mini hdmi to hdmi cables for ~$20 after shipping. They got it to me faster than expected as well.
No offense, but if you are wanting the best price on all of the accessories, you need to be a little more realistic and not expect to get them all from one place.

I tried looking for the HDMI cable that works on our phone, but I couldn't find it on monoprice...
Can anyone post a link or point me in the right direction? Thanks!

Anyone??????????????

Actually, I'm not sure that the one quoted above will work (is it Type D?) I know for sure this one will: http://www.amazon.com/Amzer-Micro-H...TF8&coliid=I2WK7R1BUCN60S&colid=2C6307WFQ3WEQ but it's not cheap... The EVO uses Type D, hdmi 1.4.

You have got to be kidding me. I already fricken ordered the above one....

HDMI
The post about the HDMI from monoprice is wrong type. That is a MINI HDMI, the EVO's take type D MICRO Hdmi as of right now I don't see them on Monoprice

AVOID this company (Amzer) at all costs. The slimiest customer service of them all.

Hdmi cord for evo

I found out that the Sprint store has the hdmi cord for the video out feature on the evo!!
sent from my HTC evo

Lots of places online sell them for a lot cheaper than Sprint. I know ebay has them for very cheap. I bought a 10 foot HDMI-microHDMI cable on ebay for less than $15....

Was there a time they didn't have it? It's an accessory for their phone, it's always been there.

It wasn't available for like..a month.

Monoprice has the best prices on them.

Sprint price for their relabeled Chinese crap: $500
MONSTER Cable: $250
Sprint cable, from eBay and without the Sprint/HTC label: $15
Better cable from eBay: $10
Have fun wasting your money.
(In case you can't tell, yes, this is an exageration, but the point remains the same.)

I think this is the right cable from monorpice:

it is indeed

my monoprice cable has a flaky connection which causes my video output to be intermittent. I'm not sure if its the cable or my 2 week old evo.. please let me know if you get one from monoprice.

i had the same problem with my monoprice cable. Went to their site and did an rma, they send me a new one for free and told me to keep the old one. the new one works much better. With a connector that small, if its off my a few micrometers it could make it loose.

Thanks... i just submitted an RMA. I tried the cable on another EVO and had the same issue, so I'm pretty sure it's the cable...

[Q] Just jumped on the HDMI cable bandwagon...

...and then i realized that it was an hdmi cable to mini hdmi FML. does anyone know of a LINK to buy a mini hdmi to micro hdmi adapter thats reasonably priced?

It's actually micro HDMI to HDMI
Check this site http://www.cablewholesale.com/specs/hdmi-cable/10v3-44106.htm

couldnt find adapter but here is a cable 1.55 + 2.98 shipping... 5 feet

I honestly can't say I've seen those kinds of adapters out in the wild. My friend also made the same mistake when trying to surprise me as a birthday gift, but the return was super simple through Amazon.
You can't return the cable? (Or, if you can, would return shipping dissuade you to do so...?)

I got mine off the old Ebay for 5 bucks shipped... nifty.

yeah the cable was like 2 bucks and shipping was 3.89... not looking forward to sending the cable back for less than half the money

probably not ideal to be using 2 adapters, just return the mini.

Check out monoprice.com. Good price. Fast shipping.

[Q] usb otg

Can someone recommend where to buy the proper cable for connection to the Xoom so that one can connect USB devices? I've bought two so far, and the first one was the right connection to the Xoom, but didn't have a tight enough contact point. The second one did not supply enough power to the device.
TIA

This cable works great. Mine came yesterday.

I can't say which one to get, but I can say: do not go with the ones at meritline.com. They say OTG, but they're just charging cables. (followed someone's advice from another thread and now I'm waiting for one to ship from ebay)...

If you want it fast, and don't mind the price, you won't go wrong with the original Motorola cable: http://www.store.motorola.com/Camer...olor_map,price,size_name&searchRank=salesrank

+1 Using the Motorola cable with no issues. It's expensive but the convenience of knowing it'll work and shipped fast was worth it to me.

Just got mine from Meritline, and boy, am I disappointed. Haha. Looks like I'll be buying one from BestBuy with my gift card when I get the chance.

Also got this cable. I was quoted 2-4 weeks for shipping, but it only took 8 business days (10 calendar days). The guy even took a picture of the package when he shipped, kinda funny. The cable works perfectly.

Unfortunately, I can also confirm the meritline ones do not work... guess I'm going after the Moto one.

Just got the motorola branded OTG cable at best buy for 20 bux. I know there are cheaper alternatives but those reviews are so hit or miss.
