And the moment, no -- connecting a USB flash drive requires the N800 to act as a USB host, and while it appears to have the hardware to support this, the software for it isn't there yet.

I'm not away of a piece of hardware that'll easily allow a USB flash drive to something the N800 can directly access, although I imagine someone could think up using an arrangement such as a wireless NAS box with the USB key plugged into a hard-drive port, which the N800 could access directly. Most people work the other way around -- connect the N800 and USB key to a PC, and then drag and drop files from there.
