It looks like my Spider V 120 has a type A USB port and a type B USB port on the back. The Type A port is labeled ipod or iPhone. Can I ignore the labels and connect my Android device to the Type A port? I don't have the cables for the Type B port. Do both ports go to the same place or is there a reason one seems for Apple products only? The type B can be used by both android or Macs. Thanks for any assistance. Dan
