In the phrase "portable and usb powered", what does portable mean? Battery operated?

No in this case it means that this unit has to be powered by the USB so it's not really portable, sorry.

Not 100% sure, but I would guess - portable means it can be used with a Laptop, and not be stuck sitting at a Desktop only.It is USB powered, ...and that often refers to portability in many cases. One thing is for sure - it does not use batteries.

There is no battery; it plugs into the computer and I copy right into Word documents.

the device has to be plugged into a usb port to use it.m that also provides power. so if i take my laptop anywhere and it has power I can use the pen.

It plugs in the wall. No battery. So not really portable but it is lightweight.

It is powered by AC only (no battery to charge via USB). It does allow the ability to plug in a USB thumb drive and share that on the network though

Unit is strictly battery powered. It uses size AA batteries. For as much as I use mine, I judge the battery life to be pretty darned good.

Portable means you can charge a battery from any 110 volt outlet wherever you are from coast to coast.Small enough to pick up and take it with you. Like a portable radio.

Desktop means that. It requires external power (AC adaptor) to run. It is external thou. Portable also means that and you DO NOT require an AC adapter because it is USB powered. Both drives require an USB connection to transfer data.

It's battery operated. But don't worry, it doesn't work with batteries, either.

It is powered with a USB cable and plug that they provide. You can leave it plugged in all the time or let it run off the internal battery and just plug it in to recharge the battery. Some functionality is sacrificed if run off battery power to conserve power. I'm going to see if I can cut off one end of the usb cable and permanently wire it into the vehicle.

Powered with a AC/DC adaptor and it appears it has a battery keeps the memory when the device is unplugged. Photos are transfered with an SD card, not USB.

It is powered using an outlet and can be brought anywhere as long as there is an outlet. It's a large speaker, but is very portable.

It runs and charges off of usb power. You can use a usb ac adaptor and leave it on, but at some point the battery may get damaged always being plugged in.

It is USB and battery powered. It plugs into your USB port but the base of the unit (where the "on" switch is), has two AA batteries.

yes it is a battery operated device. I am not sure what is on the disk. I have used these devices in the past and am familiar with their operation. I assume the disk explains how to use it. these devices if used as instructed are very effective in teaching you how to relax and they are very effective.

The keyboard is USB powered via a cord (included with the keyboard). It has two USB outlets on it to be used for any plug in devices.

I believe it says so in the instructions, either plug-in or battery operated.
