It is true that the SA-11x0 can't host devices; however the Jornada 720 also
has an SA-1111 companion chip. The SA-1111 includes an OHCI-compliant USB
host controller.

Regarding USB devices in general, it's my understanding that no
strongarm device can host USB devices - this is a limitation of the
strongarm usb controller I believe.

Here's a little more info:

For video cameras on a palmtop, the following sleeve will soon be (is?)
available for the iPAQ.

I don't believe drivers are yet available (under linux) but imagine it
won't be long before the CRL people support it.

HTH,
Greg
