Plugged in a Logitech USB mouse - no problem; Plugged in an HP Laserjet 1010 - No problem (in fact, much easier than installing the HP 1010 on a windows system where you
must install the (cr*p) HP installation S/W).
To answer your question Spitoon - it uses an proprietary Li-Ion battery pack rated at 7.4 volts 4400 mAh which slips onto the back of the system unit (just like most any laptop). The charger gives an output of 9.5 volts / 2.315 amps - has a slip on adapter for local 3 pin mains plug (ie. not the usual irritating wonky 2-pin euro plug).
I will hang on to it until the bigger screen version comes along and then present the 4G to my son and acquire the new one!
On the whole
