I'm from Argentina and the guy whom I bought the Arduino accesories from doesn't have any USB hosts. But he has this.
I'm not interested in connecting an Android phone to it but I certainly would in the future. Right now I'm only interested in connecting a DSRL camera and a Joystick with USB.
In this article here, it says "Support USB HOST mode,support HUB protocol".
Just to be sure, does it have the very same functionality as a regular USB host shield?

Ok, despite the abscense of an answer I've just purchase the ADK USB host shield and try it's functionality as a regular USB host with great results, at least on the project in which I'm working ...
What I really like about it, is that it can also be used with android, so if you are thinking in buying an USB host I think this is the way to go!
