I anm creating a device that I want to plug into a computer and act as a
remote keyboard.. I kno that CE supports USB Client and Host and figure I
could use CE but was wondering if XPe also supported USB Client. In other
words does XPe have support for being both a Host and Client. Als,o Is there
reference hardware out there as a baseline?
Thanks

Charlie,

Actualy, the 99.9% rule is "if it is on XP Pro it is on XPe too".
I don't know if there is USB client driver on XP Pro/XPe.
I guess if there is a demand for that, there must be a 3rd party solution. You may want to search Net.

Also, Microsoft is one of the USB On-The-Go participating companies (http://www.usb.org/developers/onthego) so there may already be
something implemented on XP (or LH) to meet the usb-on-the-go specs.

But if you are interested in Windows architecture and Windows CE suits your needs, you may want to take a look at the sample USB
Function Drivers of Wince: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/wceddk5/html/wce50oriUSBFunctionDrivers.asp
