Knew i had read something somewhere about the USB Port!!

Just found this on the cricut website:

"USB Port The USB port is on the machine for two reasons. The first is that it can be used for downloading future software updates that govern the machine's operations.

The second reason is that we have plans to make the Cricut™ compatible with a computer and take advantage of its strengths. However, the details of how, when, and what this will be aren't known quite yet.

Keep an eye on the website and sign up for the newsletter. We'll have more information through that forum when the time comes."


So in theory the current machine will at some point hook up to a PC

Aah.......now that really IS interesting !

That got me thinking to another post I had seen on the cricut community thread posted by the administrators etc which kind of supports that quote you found but at the same time leaves a big question mark IYGWIM!
