Yes, you may use XP and without any driver extra XP recognizes the Tablet as an USB device and mounts it cleanly. Go to MyPC and you'll the extra mounted volume. Don't forget to unmount it cleanly. That is: stop the USB device before pulling it out, or you may damage your RS-MMC.

About the applications, I don't fully understand your question. Could you expose it again, please?

Salut.
