If it doesn't take micro-A plugs, then either it doesn't support host mode, or it doesn't comply to standards, or wikipedia is wrong. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Univers...-AB_Socket_OTG

as for standards (or failure to adhere strictly to them)...just get one of these:

You can also pick up a battery-driven powered usb hub to complete the ensemble
