    Hi

    I'm playing with a HP Touchpad and I've read that the USB connector on the bottom works as a full USB Logic connector, just doesn't provide any power for external devices.....

    I realise there are external notebook enclosures that can be mains powered however is anyone aware of an external notebook sata drive enclosure that is battery powered (rechargeable would be better but disposable batteries will suffice)?

    Given you can get 1TB notebook drives now would seem a great way of giving you huge portable storage.

    Thanks in advance.
