Not according to the Acer website, they blame it on Android not being able to handle 3g dongle, but I bet someone on here will have that problem (if it exists) sorted in no time!!!
Check in the Development sub-forum. People are already working on 3G dongles.

How exactly? Two point touch is what we got from B&N.

To be fair, that isn't a valid answer. We didn't get bluetooth and USB host from B&N, but it didn't stop our amazing devs from making it work...

I was just wondering the same a few days ago:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1457752
but also no answer.
it would be nice, at least, to know if this is possible.
I wonder what alfsamsung doesn't have, X8 or OTG cable?
if it's the cable I bought one for less than 2 dollars. I would gladly donate one to him. but it sounds like he doesn't have X8 ?!?

It's USB On the Go.
USB OTG port can be used like SLAVE or HOST.
that means when you plug it to computer it's slave attached to computers' host usb port. that's how it is now.
but when you plug USB hard drive (or mouse ...) to your phone, it's HOST, so you can i.e. listen to the music from hard drive.
yes i think hardware of our x8 cannot support it
my friend also have cable and i plug it to mouse but nth happended

It's normal that nothing happens if it doesn't have support in kernel.
somebody who knows it, but really knows it, not just guessing like us, should tell us.
I hope it has OTG capable hardware, because I believe the same hardware is in the most of phones.
but as I said somebody who knows it should tell us

I had read the posts for Nexus
It also requires change in kernel and some extra modules.
Its not simple as installing an app.
That's why also i wrote my 1st post : Are our devs do not working on This feature......
If devs could do this, it would be AWESOME...
I'd love to use my wireless keyboard with my android It'll kick ass

USB host like Tab 10.1?

I see that with a cable adapter, the Tab 10.1 can host USB (meaning you can plug common USB storage into it). Can the Tab 7 hardware do this?
Yes. there are good reasons to believe this, but the software is still work in progress.
With ICS, there will be USB host, the ICS roms in the dev section are showing a great deal of promise, so the short answer is; "Evenually, yes."
If developers still support us, we should be seeing it soon.
I've asked the same question on the ICS thread since the listed working features include USB host. However, not much people seem to actually have the adapter, so we don't have anyone who can test it.
I'd buy an adapter to try but if it doesn't work, I have no knowledge to help them make it work.
usb adapter
I have bought an adapter, it did not work. The tablet did not recognize the adapter or the usb stick. I waiting to find out there is driver which can be added or if there are any other options available.

You mean the cm9 ics from humberos? And you tested this with the official adapter or a hacked apart cable?
Sorry for bombarding you with so many questions, its just that we don't have that many people to test these

It probably needs to be recoded for the hardware in the S4. Ask in the One forum if it works on the One - might just need a kernel hack.
Sixaxis works for the S4 and touch emulation has been fixed also. So you are good to go now, I am using it myself.

Yes I use a gameklip. Now I am looking for a good S4 mount. My current mount works for the Note 2 and doesn't close enough to hold the smaller S4
