This triggers one of the 'ridiculous ideas' I've had for a while now:
would it be possible to have the Archos JB act as a master? I know
it's a slave, and the USB handling is done by the hardware, and I
don't expect RockBox to do it. But would it be possible to write a
different OS for the AJB that can be run (ROLO-ed) from RockBox and can
control the USB as a master device?
