You need to switch the controller into peripheral or gadget mode first.
There is a GUI control panel for this out there somewhere, the name of
which escapes me at the moment.

Of course then there's the issue of higher-level support. I doubt that the
USB audio class driver is included in the default kernel, and ITOS does not
use standard ALSA APIs as far as I'm aware, due to the proprietary DSP.

n800 USB OTG adapter

2008-03-27 Thread Thomas Armagost
The Nokia n800 USB OTG adapter costs a measly six Canadian dollars.

http://www.electronicproductonline.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=1781

Mini USB B connector for Nokia N800
Female A USB connector for standard USB devices
Compact size makes it easy to carry

I recently purchased a Plantronics 470 USB headset.  It's Skype
friendly.  http://www.headsetzone.com/-audio470usb.html
I'm planning to use it primarily for podcasting.  Would the OTG adapter
enable me to use the Plantronics 470 as the n800's microphone?  Is it
possible to create an mp3 file of a podcast in the n800 somehow?

I'll save money if I don't have to buy a bluetooth headset.  Can the
n800 be a mobile podcasting platform?

Tallyho,
Thomas Armagost
