Using as Host

Would it be possible to use v-usb as a host to store data on a flash drive?

K, so i think i found my answer. No, it doesnt' , but under links there is
http://instruct1.cit.cornell.edu/courses/ee476/FinalProjects/s2007/blh36_cdl28_dct23/blh36_cdl28_dct23/index.html
which implements some of it.

However, I found a better method. As you probably can infer, i want to store lots of embedded data using common, cheap mass storage devices. I found that SD flash memory cards are a great way to do this as you can use the SPI interface to communicate. This would be interesting, making a data logger which could store everything on SD and then send over usb to retrieve it. Or one could just plug the SD card in...

For anyone who is interested in also doing this and happens to stumble upon this, these i think will be helpful...

Has some demo code ( i think anyways)....
