1208 accessory??

Does anyone know what the short connector that comes with the 1208 is for?

I assume it has something to do with charging, probably to enable a 12V plug attachment.

Any info would be appreciated.

Yes, that accessory (Nokia CA-44) is an adapter for people who have the other style Nokia charger, for either home or car. The other style has a larger plug. That adapter lets you use the larger style plug with the Nokia 1208. The 1208's charging hole is smaller than some older Nokia phones.

Thanks very much.

I was able to acquire a USB charging cable ($2) and a universal 12V charger ($9) at Princess Auto.

After checking polarity and ouput both are working fine with the 1208.

Thanks again.
