for a nickel]. What do you think?
A32: You really don't want to know what I think, it involves road flares,
microwave ovens and shaved cats. Enough said. But regarding the USB
- portion of your question, this is not feasible. We have no control over
- the USB port itself. We are capable of dectecting if it is in use (so we
- know which mode to switch to) but that is it. Sorry. Now about your
+ portion of your question, this is not feasible. First, any ideas
+ regarding special communications over the USB port will not work because
+ we have no control over the USB port itself. We are capable of
+ dectecting if it is in use (so we know which mode to switch to) but that
+ is it. Second, if you would like to have your Archos as a harddrive for
+ another device, know that this will not work either. The Archos unit is
+ a slave. Most other USB devices are slaves as well. So without some
+ master involved there can be no communication. Sorry. Now about your
soul. Would you settle for 3 cents and a small wad of belly button lint?
