None of the ones I have fits it... :(

Hopefully, they are not very expensive so, I can get one for the DS trial! :D

You can get USB cords for like 9.99 at Walmart.

I have a question. I don't have a Cricut, but am sure that I am getting one for Christmas. So you can hook it up to your computer and use the fonts from there too? Is this what you are talking about, or do you have to buy something online for it? I am just wondering because I just don't know. Thanks for any information.

the fonts you can use are only the ones on the cartidges you need the usb cord so you can acces the design studio software. the design stuido software makes it so you can change the way the fonts look by merging letters together to make words, making them slanted, merging different carts together to make a design stuff like that.

FYI - USB stands for Universal Serial Bus.....the cords work in lots of different things. The one for your printer should work with your cricut. The camera...well, the end that connects to the computer is all the same, but for some reason, the part that goes into the camera is different than the one that goes into the printer.

IF you go to Cricut.com and check out the section for Design Studio Software, you can see some of the amazing stuff they are creating with the software. Not just welding letters, they are creating frames, wall decorations, borders, full page layouts, and card designs.

I am green with envy as I have a Mac and can't use the trial - at least for right now. DS has promised to get it to work on my Mac with an emulating software after the first of the year.

I ordered the Design Studio software from Bargainpack.com for $59.99 plus I think $4.50 shipping. It's the best price I've seen around. so far and only good for December.
