Yeah, 257 ids sounds like they are covering for any future devices that
might get created. But what you could do is something like:
- list all 30 different devices.
- say that you accept all devices with vendor 0x045e
- in the probe function, see if the range matches your
acceptable range.
That will keep your list of supported devices to a reasonable ammount,
and still allow you to work properly for all 257 microsoft devices.
