USB OTG for the 2011 work BUT you need to root your phone and I don't think a pendrive will work

It can also be used for keyboards and other accessories.

you cannot used otg for pendrive. you can use it only for attaching a mouse or keyboard.

I have tried the same.

from different sources, if you root neo you may access pendrive. Not sure about that.

I have serached on this topic found details for "xperia arc" only.

samsung mobiles has this facility by default then why not xpeira neo??

did not understand the logic behind why I should change neo setting which will vanish my warrenty to get the facility of acccessing a pendrive?
