Cowon iAudio X5L as USB Host?

Jul 31, 2005 6:59AM PDT

Does any know if the USB host feature will work with a Canon SD300? Cowon's website didn't list it and there email response was inconclusive.

It does not

Canon camera will not work with iAudio X5. If a camera does not show up as a mass storage device when you connect to PC, it most likely not work with USB-OTG, which X5 uses. One option you have is check out the list on iaudiophile.net and locate a CF only cheap USB reader that is compatible with USB-OTG.
