Can anyone confirm that either of these work or one from the same range but smaller (32gb, 16gb etc)?
I'm planning to use with Canola - anyone have any issues with a flashdrive connected with OTG full of MP3's?
Cheers

Thanks David. Especially for the info about Canola.
I wonder if that will be addressed in the future? I really like the interface, especially being able to view by album cover.
It looks like I will have to find some other way to take all my music with me. Either another application or another device!
Any suggetions?

A few weeks back I did send an e-mail to the Canola/Open Bossa web site regarding the issue. I haven't received a response to date (I know that they are a small company and have other projects that take priority over this). I hope that this issue is addressed in the next release. I really like the program. That being said, have you tried MediaBox Media Center? I just tried it out on a couple of mp3s I got the other day. It did display the album art from the ID3 tag. I haven't had much time to play with the program so you might want to give it a try.

The N810 also has troubles with SD card readers. Ultimately an SDHC reader was found that works. I matched it with a short 6 inch cable that keys host mode on the N810. So far every SD card I tried works including an 8GB SDHC. IMHO this may be a safer way to support higher capacity flash. Parts I bought follow:
Targus TGR-SD20 SDHC reader
http://www.walmart.com/catalog/produ...uct_id=9722060
Cable - microUSB to Female USB A. Automaticaly sets the USB to OTG.

PS the N810 has less power available on the USB port than your PC. I don't know if this is a factor with a 64GB memory stick. The problem can be overcome by using an externaly powered USB hub but this isn't much of a solution in a mobile environment.
