Re: android tablet usb adaptor?
They are mini USB ports and to make a keyboard/mouse work you need a USB OTG (on the go) cable. We do this with siobhans tablet for her. The final port on the right is a hdmi port for putting the image out to a big screen/TV.
Have a look at dealextreme.com for a cable, they come from Hong Kong and usually are here in about a week. I use them for all sorts of things. |

Re: android tablet usb adaptor?
you are right Mick, it has two ports that are similar......one labelled OTG...the other HOST....and it is the OTG port that I use to connect up to my desktop....but it was really to show Shaz the shape of the port.......I mislabelled it when I put the pic on.(my name should be daft Ada)
Anyway....I knew you would know more and be able to advise....whereas I am only useful as a bad example

Re: android tablet usb adaptor?
Right - this has exactly the same arrangement of ports as on Flashy's tablet - plus it comes with an adaptor similar to what I posted in post 4. Surely that is what she's missing?

I actually posted the ebay link at 9.30 last night but everyone ignored it. Oh well such is life.  You could save a whole 10p by buying this one - and the estimated delivery time is shorter too...  24 pin Ethernet USB Adapter RJ45 Connector Android Tablet PC Epad *Free P&P* | eBay

Re: android tablet usb adaptor?
Yes that is the one Susie.
It looks like the tablet should have had one of those with it. Quote:
