Well a usb doesn't have pins. What I mean is that one end of a usb cable has a usb port (which is the same shape as a regular usb memory drive) and the other end is a whole completely different shape from the usb port. The small end (that's not the shape of a usb port) is used for to connect mobile devices to the computer. The small end has pins and there are usb cables with a certain amount of pins. Kieran said that the mini B usb cable is what I'm after. But my problem is that I don't know whether she is talking about the 4 or 5 pined one. There are different usb cables. There is the regular kind A/B, the mini kind A/mini B, and the micro kind A/micro B.
