WH1090 USB Type
Hi all,
looking forward to getting the software installed and talking to my weather station (fingers crossed).
I've just ordered a WH1090 and am expecting it in the next couple of days - however, if anyone has the WH1090 (or even a WH1080 since I believe they're the same) who could confirm what length of USB cable typically comes with the station and what type of connector it is i.e. normal square, micro, mini?
Thanks

Re: WH1090 USB Type
I can't honestly recall whether or not mine came with a usb lead, but if it did it must have been pretty short (less than 1 metre) as i ended up ordering a 5 metre cable to enable the display screen to sit on a bookcase and a cable run (discreetly) to my laptop!
