soon as I found out that the 770 did not have a powered USB port, I
imagined that a hacker somewhere would mass market a solution to the
issue. Something along the lines of a USB cable with a rechargeable
battery permanently attached that would be recharged by connecting it to a
normal computer USB port. If you get a chance, take a look at <A

steady supporters of various hacker groups including the TiVo by supplying
needed items.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
