I was looking through a Mac catalog at all the USB compatible gadgets - they had hard drives, floppies, cameras, tv tuners, joysticks, keyboards - all kinds of junk.
If the visor is USB compatible, can it talk to any of these gadgets? Why not?
(Do we need drivers? Do they draw too much power? ) It would be nice to have a choice
of USB keyboards at least...

The Visor cannot interface with typical USB devices because it is a USB "slave" device itself. It does not provide the necessary power required for USB devices.
