Well I am sorry I misread the documentation on Vbox as devices will be 
available on both the host and guest I am wrong I read the documentation again 
and it very clear once host receives the device the host will loose it.
would have loved to have it at both places though as I will not be able
to share the host and guest on virtual network as I have only one usb
wifi available.Am digging to find an alternate to use network function
if any one has some exposure please shre the info.
