Hello,I just got a W81E with Android 2.2. It works great so far, but when I try to connect a usb device (tries mouse, HUB and memory stick) with the supplied Iriver dongle to the mini usb port, this does not work. The device does not even seem to get power, as the leds on the stick and the mouse do not light up. Is this normal or should it work?Thanks,Christoph

You need to boot with USB device connected, then system will recognise a device if it's supported.

Does the same go for connecting USB to the PC?

No, PC recognizes A81E right away.

Yeah, the A81 E to PC connection is probably A81 in slave mode, while a USB device would be host mode. It's odd that it has to be inserted BEFORE booting, unless that's the only way/time that it can switch to host mode... o.w. it should just be plug & play, well as long as there are drivers for the device...
