Only masters are supposed to have the 'A' (flat) type cable and the slaves are supposed to have the 'B' (box) type cable. But archos probably didn't have the space for the 'B' type cable and broke the rules. So finding a AA type cable is a little difficult. But any AA type USB cable should work fine.
