I'm not too up on camcorders, but from doing a google search it looks like they only refer to the USB port being used to connect to a PC. But there are card readers that allow you to plug flash memory cards (like SecureDigital "SD", Compact Flash "CF", and Memory Stick) into a USB port. The ones for SD (and its mini and micro variants) aren't much bigger than a USB flash drive (or thumbnail drive as you call it). You will have to make sure the camcorder supports flash memory cards though as not all of them do.
