with the psp camera, or eyetoy as it is called, coming out would it be possible to have a driver for palm that could equip it to a palm handheld? afterall, i believe it's going to go into the mini usb port.

Uh... palms cannot act as USB hosts so no dice. No one would write a driver anyway

Yes, blow it does. If I could choose just one feature for new palms to have, USB host would be the one. The possibilities are nearly limitless, although for sure not all USB devices would work with the palm.

Can you imagine the kind of battery drain a USB host would add though? USB takes lots of power to run...say goodbye to battery life.

But I read there was a USB standard USB-to go that let small devices to work as usb host using less power, so maybe it will be possible... (I hope)

That USB host/slave thing is more of a marketing device than an energy matter...
