I think I was a bit confused, honestly.

As it happens, you have given me a lot of ideas. I didn't have my idea straight (don't actually have the RPI in hand yet, it arrives Sunday). It has onboard USB, I may need to use an external USB hub to support everything I want to do, but that is hardly difficult.

I will have to look into this "android stick"? I am sure you know, but USB Host is far more than just the gender of the connection.
