hi there

first of all sorry if it is OT but in all of those newsgroups i found
this one which seems to be just fine for my post :)

anyway... i've got a digital camera HP M417 but without an appropriate
docking station... since the camera is quite old i cant find any
proper docking station in my country and thus only thing i can think
of is to make one by myself.. the problem is the camera has the
connector for dock but i cant find any pinout and i don't know what is
the name of this connector/pinout ...it has 12pins without one pin
between them (so basically it has 11 pins not 12, cos of the empty
space)

so, does anyone of you guys have here maybe such a docking station, or
maybe do you know what's the name of this M-series docking station
connector, so i can search on the net?

please, any kind of good info is needed...

thanks once more

Does the camera have a USB-connector? Then I honestly wouldn't bother
with a docking station but just use a simple (and cheap) USB cable.
Or just take the SD card out and plug it into a standard card reader.
Many, many people prefer that way anyway as it is less hassle than
trying to plug in those tiny micro-USB plugs.

Oh, and the camera uses standard AA batteries, to you can charge those
in any standard batterie charger, too.

Here's a suggestion, Papcina@lap: Search eBay <http://www.ebay.com>.
