Is it possible to connect a USB keyboard to a Diamond?

[Wilsas]

Is this (as title) possible, I mean there are these foldable silicone keyboards wich are small and easy to take with you, but is there any software which makes it work?

Thanks in advaced

I was able to achieve this with my TyTn II and my diNovo edge. But as far as Iremember the behaviour was quite strange with non standard char (àéô...).

I tried just 5 minutes, just wanted to see if the dinovo edge was able to achieve it.

Ouatch, sorry guys; I didn't paid attention. I connected it through bluetooth and not USB.

As far as I know HTC devices does not have USB host capability so it should be impossible to achieve this through USB.

I believe the diamond must have a USB host, if you look at the service manual, there is a option to flash the phone with an external SD Adapter, there is only one logical way i can see this happening,
USB Host :D

I think we just need to wait to a driver or something to activate the host function in diamond! :)

any conclusions yet? does this mean that the diamond has hardware in it, but does not have the driver? have anyone tried this cable? http://www.nazo-fjt.com/ptcep/w-zero3/es_usb.html

it's in japanese though, but in seconds through babelfish, it is readable in english.

anybody?
