I indeed planed to use usb-host in my project. perhaps we can use the
connectors behind the battery, previous models
used to have serial there.
If anybody has a bright ideas on how to connect something to the n900
that would be great.

For the submission I am working on planned to use a cypress CY7C68013A
as usb-client but perhaps I can use the CY7C67300
http://www.cypress.com/products/index.jsp?fid=10&rpn=CY7C67300 as
host. It does make thing more challenging.
