Is it possible to do Host-Mode using an adapter like this?

Alright guys. I HAVE FINALLY FOUND IT!
This is what we need:
http://www.buyextras.com/usbfemib5maa.html
I am 100% positive it is the right one.
P.S. Unfortunately for me, it ships to U.S. addresses only, so if anyone is willing to help send one over to me, do PM me.

I'm quite tempted to hack a USB extension cable to replace the full size female A with a mini-male-A and add a small jack in the middle of the cable to provide 5V to power-hungry devices. I have a PSP on-the-go charger that can power something as power-intensive as a USB 30GB hard drive to plug into the connector. I'll post pictures if I get around to it.

I does work fine, but you need manually set the N800 to host mode. (Adapter does not have the ID pin configured for automatic operation (OTG).)
UPDATE: Since the other connector is 4-pin jack... it can't physically support OTG... But manual (forced) configuration works fine.

Greetings
How about one of the following solutions from Maplins ?
http://www.maplin.co.uk/Search.aspx?...L16BT&DOY=5m12
In particular the L16BT - USB A(F)-5pin(M) Adp
They have a number of gender changers there.
Your thoughts please

If you want to switch automaticly to Host, you have to connect pin 4 and 5.
You can modify your cable, or modify the usb-port in the n800 (e.g. http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...&postcount=118)
here is the end of the cable shown:

This is what we need:
I only can find seperate female connectors but no male.It would be nice if someone finds male connectors somewhere to buy. Then we could make Adapters on our own that would 100% work.

Now let me try again.
I HAVE FINALLY FOUND THE CORRECT ONE!
http://www.twstore.com/gcusbafxm.html
It even says OTG-compatible, so I am 110% sure!
Anyway, it's 1 for $9.99 and 2 for $13. If you look at the info page, it says a $4 handling charge will be levied on orders under $10. So be smart and get 2 instead of 1!

NICE!!!!! I just bought an N800 (waiting for it to come on Thurs) and i got a miniUSB male to USB female adapter coming too. but i want to put an external HD on it so i can put all my vids and music on a 120GB HD and carry it with my N800.
I found the WD Passport ( http://www.westerndigital.com/en/pro...sp?DriveID=262 ) I want to get it and it doesn't need external power and it runs at 5400RPM but my question is will it be fast enough to play all my music and vids off with out any slow down?

Speed shouldn't be a problem, but power will.
