Proprietary Connector

No, it’s a proprietary connector. Don’t use the iPod connector or you risk frying it, since the iPod connector sends power through different pins.

I, too, would rather it had a mini-USB or micro-USB connector. But it doesn’t. Neither do mp3 players by Sony, Zune, Samsung, iPod…I’m sensing a trend here.

Generic replacement cables are pretty cheap, though–like about $5 on Amazon–so you could always get a spare.
