Hi,

I have short FW 800 -> FW 400 lead made by Belkin.

It has the FireWire symbol on the *underside* of the 800 connector. Are all FW800 connectors like this?

If so - it seems to be a very bad design decision - as USB has trained us to locate the top of the connector by the Icon.

I've had to draw a new FireWire Logo on my lead to stop me trying to plug it in the wrong way up!
