Topic: firewire cable right angled/angular/bent/90? offset

in addition to all these strain relief solutions (homemade or not) i saw by now i'm asking myself where to get an right angled firewire cable to use with the express card in germany.

something like this: http://www.usbfirewire.com/Parts/rr-cfb-66r09-60b.html

thanks in advance for any tips!
Harry

Not an angled cable, but maybe even more useful:

Available for all the different FW ports at Lindy.

what i want to achieve is that this whole express card with firewire cable thing pokes out of the laptop as little as possible. this adapter might be better than a normal cable but i think with an angled cable you're even better off.
but Timur, thanks for the tip!

angled cables are going to cost you a little bit more cause they aren't common place. I picked up one at http://ntcdistributing.com/products/fir … cables.htm
