A great mystery:  The 3 foot power cable that connects to the "brick" 
is a 3 prong.  The included folding clip that connects to the "brick" 
is a 2 prong.  Where does the extra prong go??? hmmmm....  If you look 
at the end of the power cable, you notice there really are only 2 
contact points... 2 prongs... so the 3rd one is on there for 
decoration??
