USB hard drives. What would happen?

Any Axim proficient users out there now what would happen if you hooked up your axim to a USB hard drive?
Is it possible to connect a portable hard drive to your axim for transfer of info.

Cheers

You'd need a CF card that allows the Axim to become a USB host device. If you did it right now, nothing would happen...

No, you can't hook a USB drive to the Ax. Both are usb DEVICES, and USB protocol requires one to be a HOST. I have read that there will be a CF USB Host card available in the spring, don't know much more than that.

This is what you need....
