Be careful when buying firewire cables, a lot of the cables on the market are heavy-duty (thick) cables and this is bad for astronomy use. I found a stall at the computer markets in canberra that sells thin black firewire cables, definitely you want to use these ones otherwise you'll tie yourself in knots if you buy the heavy duty cables.

Good tip, thanks!
The thick ones I have are a pain in the cold, as they tend not to flex and bend very well.
