Just a question about the GoType keyboard. Can you print to a USB printer using the built in port on the keyboard?

How awesome would that be?

The Visor is a USB "slave" device. That means that it relies on power from the USB bus to work and therefore cannot support USB periperals. Also, I believe the USB spec is at 5 volts and the Visor, with just 2 AAA batteries, cannot provide that kind of power.

Maybe a USB host interface can be done on a Springboard, but I wouldn't hold my breath.
