They work fine for my full-speed mini-B application.

A cable would be better i think, to avoid killing the usb socket in the N800.
hostman: have you tried this cable with an usb hub with a mini usb socket? I know a shop here in Hungary where I could buy a cable like this (very expensive
) but I would only buy it if it worked with a hub. So: N800 - cable - hub - usb device.

I bought the Amazon csble and removed most of the metal shielding (top and sides). Works like a charm!

I have a 5p mini usb cable and I found only 4 cables + shield. As I understood I need 5 cables to make a proper OTG adaptor.

- Startech.com USB2VGA
See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=260863
and http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/HowTo/AddVGAAdapter
I can see a "docking station" for my N800 already; keyboard, HD, 100TX ethernet connector and VGA monitor connected through a powered USB hub... oooh, ahh...
PS: I got a keyboard working for the price of a female-female USB-A gender changer from Radio Shack (or The Source as they are called now in Canada).
