hi

i know that is it possible to connect usb devices to som toshiba PDAs, with a adapter cable.

so is there a way to connect usb devices e.g. usb harddisks to a 2210?

Isn't this the same question as you posted here (http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=248148)? Don't cross post! :devilboy:

OSUKid7 -- actually, the question is slightly different. ;)

AssetBurned -- see the link OSUKid7 points to, and you'll see two CF cards that you can use. Unfortunately, you do need one of them, as the 2210 doesn't have USB host capability built-in.

lol...just saw both posts on the front page/recent posts. (hmm...this isn't locked yet?)
Actually, I changed my response a little. ;) They're "sister" threads, but enough to stay separate.

right this are sister posts :-)

my main problem is that the 2210 doesn´t support sleeves or jackets (like we casio users call them).
if the 2210 does support USB directly or even with a small cable it would be much more interesting for me.

Correct. Your best bet still remains either to get a CF USB card... or, if I may ask, what do you need USB for? Why not use a Microdrive if you need a hard drive?

using a cf usb adapter is not a good idea because
-costs more than 100$
-you'll wont find drivers for most devices
-the card is big, (i.e wi-fi cards)

how is it not a good idea if that is the only option for her?
