USB memory sticks

has anyone seen a module that will allow me to use USB memory sticks with my Visor Pro?

I use them all the time with my laptop. I would love to be able to use them on my Visor as well.

They are also sometimes called "USB hard disks" or "Keyring hard disks".

No, as far as I know there isn't because a small Visor does not have the capability to act as a USB host.

What I would recommend is to get a USB key with removeable memory, like the SanDisk Cruzer, then when you want to get things from it to your Visor, take the card out of the key and put it in a SD Springboard module. Also, when you decide to upgrade, you can always use the SD cards in the newer Palm and Pocket PC devices.
