pny otg panda m2PNY, the leading manufacturer of memory products and PC Peripherals, is delighted to announce the combination of the OTG Panda and the Micro M2 USB drive, a perfect package for mobile solution. USB OTG is an abbreviation of USB On-The-Go. This basically means that you can plug any PC peripheral to such a port on the device, which acts as a USB host similar to a PC with a USB port, allowing USB flash drives to be connected directly for data transfer. Using USB OTG, one will finally be able to get to do something more productive on the Android Smartphone by connecting a USB keyboard/mouse combo or a mouse connected via OTG.

With most Android phones being fast enough to support interesting games, one can really take control of gaming by attaching a USB joystick and enjoy a competitive edge over your competitors. One of the peripheral devices one can connect to an Android Smartphone or tablet via OTG is a USB storage drive. This allows one to transfer data directly to the USB drive without having to make use of a computer. Also, this is very convenient because one can do it on the move, just about anywhere.
