Won't the AirPad read a USB drive? Why not use a USB flashcard reader?

Thanks for the hint, Dave. It definitely works. I found a Polaroid 72-in-1 USB reader on Amazon for under 10 bucks and it does the job. As for other posts about mounting/unmounting USB drives - I've just plugged and unplugged with no trouble. The Android OS has its act together so far as I can tell.
