[android-developers] Re: connecting USB serial device to Android handset, is it possible?

While I do not have full understanding of different hardwares and
chips, not being too familiar with hardware in general, the Honeycomb
suite does allow for the user to connect an HID interfacing USB device
and open up a connection with it. From there you could communicate
with the device via a direct bytestream if you know what commands to
send it over the connection (as well as receive over the connection).
I have done this just recently with an external USB device and am
currently communicating with it at the moment.

If this is on track, I'm glad that it could provide you with the
understanding that it is capable.
