I think sellers and buyers are having trouble with mini vs. micro USB cables.

Mini is the type for example that the Moto Razr V3* used.

Micro is the newer version that LG and a few other phone makers use on the newer phones.

Here is a picture to show the difference

Hope this helps.  I personally liked the mini better because it was more durable.

Same problem here.  I tried three different ones, and none fit the port.  Anyone know why this is happening?

There are 9 different kinds of USB connectors, only one is correct:

My eyes are going cross-eyed, but I think it's a 5-pin, micro-B.  Needs to be verified, by someone with better eyesight!

Hmm, I noticed that they also have a 3.5 mm stereo to RCA stereo plug cable.  That would be great for connecting my phone to my home theater amplifier! Cool

If you haven't heard of monoprice.com, they're a good company.  I've ordered plenty of stuff from them and it's pretty good quality.

I can confirm that the cable from monoprice I linked above does charge the Dare!  Glad I ordered 2 for like $5.

I have not seen this scenario posted. I too receive the "unauthorized" message when I plug in the cable I purchased at Staples yet it charges and transfers data. What does the Dare see that I do not?
