I agree!
I was surprised when i needed one!

Ebay ought to have one for 1eur, but there's the shipping...

My PC is a bit funny with the USB. First it wouldn't want to know the  
digital camera, so i bought a separate card reader. that worked until i  
installed xp again after a hd failure, then the reader wouldn't work but  
the camera would. By then i liked the reader better so in the end i got  
another reader. Same with keyboards. It doesn't like it at all if i use  
phone cable for USB, especially if over a few meters. Works for a while,  
then doesn't. Crap really that USB...
