Hi , Ive seen some videos of the nokia n8 . And the adapter they have for connecting an usb flash drive is incredible!! , I made some research and its kinda possible in the motorola droid . So Im asking if its possible to do it?

For example , nokia uses this cable: http://www.gadget.pdamu.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/Nokia-N8-HDMI-USB-Cable-Data.jpg

Ive also seen that chinese tablets copys uses adapters for connecting usb flash drives.

So , just want to know if its possible!

thanks !! , btw sorry for my english!

The moto droid says that kernel drivers are needed - also as USB host the phone wants to supply 5v power on USB port.

it may be possible, but a lot of work. Even the Moto Droid is not fully functioning yet.
