Me too.
I had plans to reverse engineer and then write drivers for my ricoh 5
in one controller
for SD and memstick mode (especialy XD)
Now I know that RE part isn't the hardest probably, but writing the
core support for XD subsystem (your was rejected I see)
I am also an owner of a jmicron controller, and thanks to you memstick
on it is supported.
What to do now?
Best regards,
Maxim Levitsky
