Is the USB port just for recharging, or does it display bigger images on a PC screen?

Charging and updating. As far as I know, there is no video output. There is zero documentation, but lots of online information about operating the Nano and upgrading the software.

It is not a usb adapter. The display port has become more standard on Dell pcs. You can still purchase a usb to video adapter but I would not recommend it.

I don't know that answer, but... for windows (7-64 in my case) they load a service that monitors the USB port and chews up so much CPU overhead that I ended up removing the device and giving up on it. So that will be something else to watch out for.

If I plug in with USB the device is not recognized. So I pull the card and there are no problems. (PC). If you record in 720 res, it looks really good on the screen. That and you can read license plates plainly at that res.

No, the USB plug is just for connecting to a computer to download pictures. The battery comes out and goes on a charging bay. I bought a extra off brand battery and just kept one charged and alternated the two.

No, the USB port is for plugging an additional hard drive into the device for sharing.

The USB connector is only for controlling a PC via USB, not for powering. It's not very power-intensive and putting in a fresh set of batteries is easy.

in this picture the USB Port on the left is 2.1Amp and the one on the right is 1amp. The small micro usb port is for no-solar recharging of the unit, but I'm sorry to say my unit has stop recharging, either by solar or the micro usb.

I think so, it has multiple USB ports and display ports or different types.

If you get the docking station you can use a USB it just has two mini USB, for power and video.

Hi there. Unfortunately, no. The USB is for power. It has to plug to a power cube while the micro USB carries the image and sound to the HDMI port. Hope this helps.

I don't see a USB connection on the monitor. I see a power connection, and few HDMIs. It is a good monitor. Buy it!

The USB cord also plugs into an AC converter head, so you can recharge directly. I continue to be amazed how little recharging is needed. The battery rocks.BTW, I am *not* using the CD-ROM or any of the programs it offers. To transfer photos, I plug the memory card into the PC and simply copy them over to the hard disc. Much is to be said for simplicity...:)

Yes, that is the purpose of the device. It plugs into a usb port for data and also another usb port for power.Works great, just need two usb ports free. As to Windows 8, I have had no problems.

I haven't had any issues with the USB port. I don't believe it came with an external charger but I bought one with extra batteries thru eBay. However while traveling for 2 weeks and taking a lot of pictures, I barely had to charge the battery.

I'm sorry but I don't know. I haven't left it plugged in all the time because it uses up one of my usb ports.
