[maemo-developers] N800 and USB host mode

[From: Andreas Hubel]

Perhaps, you don't need USB as the Nokia 770 and N800 each have an
speaker and microphone. Okay the microphone at 770 has no jack, but as
far as i now at N800, but you could also use a bluetooth headset to get
a line in ;-) And as serial device you could use the serial port at the
backside pins of the device, at least for n700 the pin layout is public.

but okay usb would be nicer, because it would only be one jack.

mfg ah
