Justin, You say "In 1.0 you don't have access to the USB port via the Java API layer. ". Does that imply that there is another interface that may allow me to access the USB port? We would like to use the G1 as a control head for several devices and a wireless link will not be appropriate. We are hoping to use the USB to get control information and data back and forth.
