 And do those cables also provide data transfer? I've had a few cell
phones that came with power-only USB-2 cables -- no data pins. {And
strangely, one of those would NOT charge using a common USB-2 charger [vs
phone dedicated charger] but WOULD charge when plugged into a laptop at
work... and I don't think the laptop had those special "charge mode" USB
ports)
