Does this have a USB port? If not, does anyone use an OTG cable? How does that work for you? Also, can you use a wireless keyboard with it? THANKS!

It has a micro-USB port (the smallest USB port). It can be charged thru that, and can handle data transfer. (charging can also be done by the cradle, without the micro-USB cable). I have not used a wireless / bluetooth keyboard with it yet (though I plan on using a pair of bluetooth headphones to go along with its excellent picture quality..!) Hope this helps.

buy any BT keyboard that has a usb dongle and plug it in. You could buy the WiFi/Bt card (I have it for Wifi), but most BT keyboard bring the dongle (logitech). IR is bad, line of sight

I got a keyboard case as well for mine and its regular USB, it doesn't work at all, got an adapter to put it on the micro USB space, still nothing. I use my old desktop wireless keyboard, and it works in the USB slot unless charger is hooked up, then it types like ten of one letter, or misses other letters.

It has one normal USB port. You can hook typical USB Keyboards. Note: Since it has only one USB port, you can connect either equiso keyboard or normal keyboard

I bought item number 7395064 Micro Connectors USB OTG Cable from Frys.com. It allows you to connect On the Go capable USB devices such as a flash drive, mouse, keyboard, etc. directly to your Smartphone or tablet via Micro USB port. They say it's compatible with latest Android phones & tablets. I picked it up in-store because I needed it right away. But shipping is only $1.99. The adapter has a very short cord and works great...as does the keyboard. Amazon also has a wide variety of USB 2.0 A Female to Micro B Male Adapter Cables too...all with short cords. Read the reviews and pick up the one you like best. All are pretty reasonably priced. I bought item number 7395064 Micro Connectors USB OTG Cable from Frys.com.

I have several windows wireless keyboards and they work fine both with Ubuntu, Mint (a derivative of Ubuntu) and Android 4.2.2. I just received the keyboard and plugged it into an Android tablet and it works fine.

It does work well with an external keyboard; however, I have had mine for approx two weeks and it will not charge to 100% I'm thinking....this one may be defective. O_0

You'll need a micro USB adaptor to connect to the cable that comes with this (keyboard) and I ordered mine here (on Amazon) and I got it for around 56 cents. (:

Nope. It's gotta be wireless. The question is, why would you want such a tiny keyboard to be wired? Are you limited to one USB? Anyway, I've tried it out. The keyboard doesn't do anything without the dongle being plugged in.

There is a special USB port for the keyboard. USB 2.0 Type B plug on one end and the regular USB on the other for your computer, which does not come with the keyboard. Hope that helps.

It has a Micro USB and a MINI HDMI ports. The USB port is mostly for hooking to computers. It comes with a USB charger for the keyboard. I use my phone charger for charging the keyboard because it has a plugin. I haven't tried the HDMI connection yet but plan on doing so soon. Needs a mini to normal HDMI to work on big tv. Not sure on the keyboard's range either

There is a cord attached to the keyboard that will plug into an OTG micro USB port. That is what your tablet needs to have in order to plug the keyboard into it. I hope that helps.

I bought this for my 7 year old daughter as a training aid and it did not live up to her expectations. I don't believe it came with the OTG cable. I don't remember seeing one. There is an input for headphones, a pin charger and the mini usb. It cannot be connected to an external keyboard without buying an adapter. The tablet is okay for internet and simple games but not for watching internet videos or movies. It's battery life is about one hour without the charger being connected.

The wireless keyboard comes with a usb dongle that you connect to a usb port. I have a logitech wireless mouse working with a logitech USB Dongle on my set. The dongle acts like bluetooth. My set immediately recognized the wireless mouse using the usb dongle (transmitter/receiver).

I am not what you are asking, the ipad and keyboard have no usb ports. The keyboard communicates with the ipad via Bluetooth.
