However, the PC plugs are notorious for falling off or not connecting as positively... Most of the time it's not an issue with miniphones...

If you avoid buying your miniphone cords at the dollar store, there shouldn't be too much difference in quality.

I always turn off devices (photo,audio,video) when plugging / unplugging cords. Safer for the device that way - no pop-causing shorts to worry about...

FlashWaves triggers give you all 3 options : PC terminal. miniphone, and hotshoe. I tried them all, just because I wanted to compare, and if I ever couldn't use hotshoe, I'd prefer miniphone to pc cords.
