Corded remote for E-PL2?

Hi. Please can anyone confirm whether the E-PL2 can take the RM-UC1 remote corded control that (for example) fits the E620, E-30, EP-1 and EP-2? I've read conflicting reports, and ideally I'd like confirmation from someone who's actually got this to work.

The E-PL2 has a mini-USB socket, whereas I thought the RM-UC1 had a microUSB plug, but I might be wrong on that.

If not, can anyone please post details of any corded remote that they have found to work with the E-PL2?

Many thanks

Yes, pretty certain it will work work with the E-PL2, but not the E-PL1 (on which the feature was removed because of the budget status of the camera model).

I just hooked up an RM-UC1 to an E-PL2 and can confirm it works perfectly.
