Nokia N8 uses USB OTG, browses files off a USB drive and Nokia C5

31 May, 2010
USB On-The-Go is a relatively unknown feature on mobile phones despite its obvious advantages. Watch how some lucky dude connects a USB flash drive and a Nokia C5 to the N8 and plays a few tracks...

The fruit logo lovers doesn't understand the simple fact about programming. If Apple build OS that can do all user-wanted customization it would required lot more coding inside the OS, which will eat up resources and speed, this mean they can never display the so-called smooth effects that has been the top sale pitch behind this product.

                    They will keep on comparing single-task unit against multi-task unit. So sad how mindless people can get sometimes and really disapointed to see a well known company is using such methods even tho they can do better, they have resources to do things better to get into fair competition but they show their true nature by just feeding everyone false information and make them believe on something that is not there.

                                      If Nokia was smart, they would have putted regular USB port on di phone from start! instead of using dis unneeded cables..
