I didn't realize the power connector was female.  Thanks.

Still a bit odd, since the power brick has a female connector as well. 
The cable for the brick ends in a micro connector.  Is the female 
connector a micro?  The illustrations don't seem to show it well and 
I've not seen a female microUSB cable end before.  I guess there's 
nothing to prevent that.
