    This device is a pure BEAST!

    For many years I suffered with a previous phone addiction with some enjoyment of features I'd like to appreciate on BB10, yet nothing is enough to keep me away for more than a week.Due to not having my own personal computer and trying ever more NOT to use more corporate laptop as such I came to a roadblock. I have 4 USB keys that where formated in NTFS which cannot be read by my PS3 so the movies and TV shows will not display on the TV, not to mention being DIVX format. So I reformated the movies into quality MP4, resaved them on the USB Keys.

    The beauty:
    With the USB-On-The-Go adapter I was able to access them on my Z30; late night TV shows in bed = ROCK for an over worked single I.T. guy
    But that wasn't enough ... I had an old 8-Port USB Hub laying around and I figured, why not test a theory. Since this hub is meant for a computer and requires an external power adapter, will it BB10 Bliss?

    Let's see.

    BAM! Two 16GB USB Keys, internal 64GB Class 10 MicroSD, Box.Net, DropBox (not yet connected) and it's ability to file share between ALL of them

    I'd love to try out USB-OTG but my phone didn't come with a cable, so I have to buy one. It's a really good touch, though.

    I think you can buy any USB-in to microUSB cable.

    You can even buy a dual port USB drive. One port for regular usb port and one for mini. Stick it into Z30 one way and into computer/peripheral the other way. No cables needed.

    Don't forget Microsoft One Drive. 15GB there free to, and an app that you can setup to automatically sync your pictures and videos. Shows up in the file manager as a local storage device too!
