You can now use USB or SD storage without rooting your device with this app:

Wow very nice find.

I checked this out last night on Google Play -- pretty awesome.  Went back this morning to snag the app -  and the item is no longer there! What's up with that?

I forwarded the link to my email (from my work email  ;D). When I get home from work, I will click on that link on my Nexus 7, and hopefully that will work. Thanks a lot bob87794 for the heads up !

It's back up.  I'm actually surprised that Google allowed this app in the Google Play Store.  Apparently they made the developer remove exFAT capability which is why it was unavailable for a while.   But it apparently let's you read pictures, video and docs off any usb formatted to FAT16 or FAT32.   I'll try it tonight.   Looks like it could really help out the storage issues for Nexus 7 owners.   Only limitation is that it doesn't let you export...just import so it's read only.   Still...pretty cool.
