Absolutely! I have the 800ct 5/166 model. The thing I
must remind myself constantly is the carbus slot is on
the bottom, and the zoomed video is on top. I have a
Belkin USB2 (p81161-b). Now my experiences. No mouse test
yet. But I have connected my IPAQ 3670 and external HDD
with out problems. Thats all I got. Good luck!
