Just saw this on Engadget...

Any chance this functionality could be backported to the nook?

We lack true USB support on the Nook currently.

The hardware is there in nook but it might take a bit of time to get it to work, and right now its proving to be more and more difficult to do it. Till now no one has been able to get power across usb port and still have a working nook

hmm...maybe with a powered USB hub? anyway, I'd rather someone find a way to get SDXC cards working on the nook, I kinda wish I could walk around with 64 or 128GB of storage [drool]

This topic is from back in april, lol. Not to mention USB host has been integrated in the OC kernel, and I believe the stable build now.

If they don't know by now they're just not in with the scene!@.@

While it is true that the USB Host primary function has been incorporated into dalingrins 06/18/2011 Kernel, there is much more to implementing full functionality than that. The reference verygreen thread is a continuing update for the processes needed to implement USB functions.
