So far, I can say you the iLiad has a USB-Host plug. But the iLiad is missing HID drivers if I'm not mistaken. And the Bluetooth interface is a myth, Scotty was using a USB-Bluetooth plug IIRC.
One point, that will give you troubles, even if the iLiad is adaptable, as soon as you break the OS you are in for a "return to netherlands for 75 EUR" reflash. As long as there is no "press 2 buttons on boot to reflash from CF/SD" option, I wouldn't want to touch the system internals. (well I did it while playing around with the device, but I learned from that accident)
