[maemo-developers] N800 experimental host mode patches available

[From: Andreas Hubel]

Hi,

do you or somebody else here know if the 770 also has this host
detection via the ID pin feature?

And why does the USB chip of the N800 don't need this 5V from external?
I thougt it also need it, because there is only 3V and no 3 to 5V
converter inside the device.

Regards,
Andi
