(would be lovely if working with standard batteries)

Cyberpower CP-H420MP is a self powered HUB that uses 4xAAA rechargeables (will recharge itself if you plug it into a powered USB port).

However I don't have one and reviews on Amazon aren't great - but for $23 with free ship I might pick one up anyway. Batteries are extra if you don't already have some.

Aww, so what the hell now?

Can't wait to try out usb OTG.

for any UK readers, aldi have roll-up usb keyboards for £6.99. I've not tried mine with the n800 yet, as I need to make/buy an adapter cable, but I see no reason why it won't as it's a standard HCI keyboard

Hi DeeJay

Are you using an OTG cable (auto switching to host mode) or just a regular A-to-mini-B adapter (manual switching to host mode).

I'm just trying to clarify the differences between your working setup and my not-so-working one.

I've got one of the role-ups from USLogic. Works fine. I just used a female to female adapter connected the two USB cables and it works.

Can somebody with a Dev box compile injection enabled RT73 drivers for me?

I want to test out my Wireless USB NIC with Kismet & AirCrack-NG ;

Hehe,

I think this would make a good USB Hub for the N8x0 :

This may have been mention already but here is another small keyboard, SOLIDTEK 4"X9" Super Mini USB Keyboard. I use it with my Samsung Q1U EL, but I hope to try it on the my N800 tonight.
