USB OTG

My favorite hobbies are photography and traveling. Luckily those things go together :smileyhappy: With PlayBook 2.0, I'm very close to being able to leave my laptop behind. My PlayBook fits perfectly in my camera bag. The only thing stopping me from doing that now is lack of USB OTG support. If I could plug my camera/sd card into my PlayBook and import photos from the day, I wouldn't need my laptop. Please bring this support soon?

Re: USB OTG

I would consider myself a very beginner camera guy myself and completely agree that this is a great use case on how these two different technologies could work together.    It's definitely an area of interest for RIM and me personally :smileywink:

Re: USB OTG

I think one of the big things has been that DingleBerry managed to get this to work on OS 1.x.x.

 

Now that we have a file manager this essentially should be more possible than it was.
