I contacted them in mid December about some specs, no reply yet. I think all these *DKs are only for companies that want to include authentec hardware on their devices. I also think that it wouldn't hurt to bug them about sending some specs. The worst that can happen is a rejection. -- NV _______________________________________________ fprint mailing list [email protected] http://lists.reactivated.net/mailman/listinfo/fprint
