Very good.

I think I read somewhere that the N800 will not source more than 100 milliamps as USB host. You stuck an unpowered hub and two flash drives (memory sticks) simultaneously on the N800 and it worked? That is good but I have to think you were very close to the threshold where the N800 was going to terminate 5volt output power.
