Will the Archos 604 - Wifi power a portable external hard drive?

I am looking to buy one but 30gigs doesn%26#39;t seem enough for me, would a portable external hard drive be powered by the Archos via the USB cable? Assuming, obviously, that the external HD is powered that way.



Answer:

Nope. Given that the Archos itself is a battery powered device, it%26#39;s not going to be able to provide DC +5v at sufficient amperage to support an external drive.
