A little off topic for the list, I know, but why can you understand a manufacturer not releasing driver sources? a) The driver sources are no good unless you already have the hardware b) A manufacturer *SHOULD* want to allow people to use their hardware Therefore, it's in *EVERY* manufacturer's best interests to release driver source. Keep in mind we're not talking about the ARCHITECTURE of the device - I can easily see why someone would want to protect that...but the protocols used in communicating with that device, there's absolutely ZERO reason to keep those closed - because of a) above.
