At least a couple of people have responded referring to a 'dongle'.
That sort of connector is for the MP2x00 MessagePads. For the MP130,
you need a cable with a Macintosh serial cable connector on one end,
and the appropriate connector to fit your Windows computer on the
other. With that knowledge, you should be able to find vendors on
eBay or elsewhere on the Internet.
