Universal Serial Bus is not being Universal right now :shadedshu
2. if you look, 2.0 cables still fit (at 2.0 speeds ofc)
i can't connect it to my current USB 2.0 outlet on my notebook right?
would be nice if they ship a cable with it for usb 2.0 just for the transition time :)
look at the pic they show of the connector - the part on the left is standard USB 2.0 micro USB - the 3.0 cable just covers BOTH sides at once (wider cable)
