And yes, Herald, I did read some stuff on the OTG.
It's just that I had been using OTG on the other platforms
(ubuntu/meego) without noticing it.
You probably have not been using OTG on those platforms. There are no
phones/tablets out there with Ubuntu (apart from a few you can flash
yourself) that have OTG. Actually very few mobile devices actually
support it, and even then most of those not out of the box but with
hacks and mods for the power etc...
And for the fully functional 3D version I will have to switch to ubuntu
phone. Several devices with OTG up there.
Indeed some Ubuntu supported phones do, with mods most of the time.
Although they are more exception than rule.
Otoh there has been experimenting going on the Jolla to support host
mode. (Which is OTG like, in the sense that the port gets manually
switched and it does not deliver power unlike a real OTG port.)

More experimenting with this is expected to happen on some coming Jolla
hack day to see if it can be made to work.

Philippe
