Some USB controller chipsets allow switching between host and client modes. Of course, the standard drivers do not allow this. But some do, ie the Nokia N800 internet tablet running Linux could be switched between USB host mode and USB client modes. What is needed is for the PC to emulate a "mass storage device" and mount a FAT32 filesystem. That's what the TV side will get, and it'll be completely happy with it. The TV doesn't know if it's a real usb mass storage device, emulated in software, or with every bit represented by a physical abacus.... Of course, like everything in software, what is required is for someone to code it...
