Hello all,
I recently had the opportunity to score an HP Jornada 820 on eBay:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/162018462368?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
As I await its arrival, I am wondering if I will be able to use the USB port for a memory device, or perhaps even attaching a CDROM device. Here is what one description says:
"The Jornada comes with a USB (Universal Serial Bus) port, a feature new to Windows CE in the H/PC Pro edition. Unfortunately, Microsoft only included a mouse driver for this port (for the Microsoft Intellimouse V3.0 USB, or a compatible mouse). You will need to look for additional drivers if you want to use the USB port for other peripherals."
This is consistent with most descriptions that I've found out on the Internet so far. I've also seen references to some sort of USB driver called USBclik or ClikUSB that some folks were able to obtain back in the early 2000s that supposedly opened up the capability of the Jornada 820's USB port to allow using USB memory sticks.
Does anyone here have any knowledge about this? Can anyone point me to where I might still be able to find USB drivers for Windows CE for H/PC Pro?
Thanks very much for listening.
