My Samsung Tab (7 inch version) doesn't have Honeycomb (Gingerbread). And it doesn't have a USB connection. The charger/USB connection appears to be a proprietary connection that is about an inch wide.

Maybe you are a macro shooter, or in my case, shooting a remote camera. I had to stand on a bucket to adjust my 7D/70-200 lens aimed at second base. This was so the remote would clear the fence and give me a clear shot. Having the abillity to see my image would not only help with my aim, but focus also. I use manual focus and live view would be great. Once focused, I tape the lens so the focus won't drift.  HOSTED PHOTO please log in to view hosted photos in full size.
