Rumor: WP 8.1 to Support OTG?
According to Twitter user “Nawzil8” who’s had some reliable info about WP 8.1 in the past, WP 8.1 will also feature USB OTG support. Something Symbian 3 users might be familiar with, as it was a pretty nifty feature to have on the N8 and other devices. Of course on WP it would be even more useful with the presence of the Office Suite, meaning that you could edit documents on the go, even if they weren’t on your phone or on the cloud; plus it’s great for watching movies.
"USB Storage detected. Tap to view files." Tapping on it opens the File Manager and shows the files. USB OTG on #WindowsPhone8.1

Of course this is just a rumor, and could be fake, but I sincerely hope it isn’t because WP could really use this! So feel free to get excited, but keep your salt shaker nearby.
