The N900 comes without USB host mode. When I asked I was told that the 
limitation comes at hardware level.

The reason for this decision was the complexity of providing support for 
charging, PC connectivity and USB OTG efficiently through the same Micro USB 
port within the project deadlines. We needed to make choices and the decision 
was to sacrify USB OTG and concentrate on the essential use cases of charging 
and connecting to the PC, bringing the N900 to the market in its due time.
