USB doesn't assign 'host' and 'device' based on just software. Look at the
connectors! They're different. Only one end of the connection is
qualified, by its hardware design, to be the host.

Yes, assuming I have to use USB. There is not any app to by pass the AS
thiking the datalogger is a "host" ?

USB is possible, but problematic due to the fact that it is normally a
"client" rather than "host" and I am not aware of programmic use of this
connection to transfer data outside of activesync other than one app
which configures the ppc as a mass storage device on connect.
