    USB OTG



    Short for USB On-The-Go, an extension of the USB 2.0 specification for connecting peripheral devices to each other. USB OTG products can communicate with each other without the need to be connected to a PC. For example, a digital camera can connect to a PDA, or a mobile phone can connect to a printer or a scanner, as long as all the devices are USB OTG-compatible. USB OTG grew from the increasing need for portable devices to be able to communicate with each other as the culture of technology moves away from a PC-centric world.

    One of the important features of USB OTG is that the standard does not require a host PC in order for the devices to communicate. USB OTG devices, known as dual-role peripherals, can act as limited hosts or peripherals themselves depending on how the cables are connected to the devices, and they also can connect to a host PC.

    couldn't find the damn thing anywhere so i just built one, if you have tech skills usb for both ends are simular, pin1(red)--vcc, pin2(white)--data-, pin3(green)--data+, pin4(black)--ground, just grab a black berry data cable(a short one works just nice), get a usb extension and remove the input end and then remove the usb end from the bb cable and replace it just as i've shown the pin wiring and your good to go.
