You would not need to connect your USB drive to your PC to transfer files, unless you particularly wanted to.

Truehl (Thomas) did a great job on that package. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ kesey's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10786 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98939 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
