 		 #164418 - Bigger processor core needed for USB host
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Yes, A bigger processor core will be needed to support USB Host.

So the USB Wireless modem is cheaper but a microcontroller with USB host is more costly ,both for the micro and "implementation of the USB host stack", no to mention the development time to learn a new more complex 32bit processor core.

USB Host on a NXP ARM7 Processor example

And often you have to purchase the USB Host stack - which is many thousands of dollars

So cheaper USB wireless modem is not always cheaper!
