USB Host is already supported to an extent in WM2003SE, but upgrading to WM5 isn't going to install USB Host in the X50s. You need special hardware.

If there's an option in WM5 to turn a PPC into a USB drive, I haven't seen it.

Do the x5X series with Mobile 5 support U.S.B mass storage?

Question

Does anyone know for sure if the New Dell X51V has the hardware support for this? Thanks.

Nope we still gotta use Card Export according to the "I have an Axim X51v, ask me anything" thread

Can you use x51v, now with WM 5, as USB mass storage device?

Not out of the box.
