The device has WiFi, a full size USB socket and a microSD slot. It is powered via a miniUSB socket. One feature lacking from the Dongle is Bluetooth for a remote keyboard, although a TV type hand-held remote control is provided.
To use the Dongle as a desktop computer, a keyboard would be needed. Kogan off their own "Android Deluxe Wireless Keyboard & Trackpad", but this is too small for serious typing.
The Logitech Wireless Touch Keyboard K400 with Multi-Touch Touchpad would be more useful. I recently purchased on of these. Despite the "Touch Keyboard" name it has a conventional keyboard, plus a large large touch pad (where the numeric keypad would normally be). This is small enough to sit on the lap but large enough to type comfortably on. Alternatively a low cost USB hub could be plugged in and desktop keyboard and mouse used (I recently purchased a hub, keyboard and mouse for less than $15).
Agora is the brand name Kogan give their low cost computer range. I have the Kogan Ultra Portable Agora 12" Laptop, which has proven very reliable and useful.
