Being a usb gadget freak, I bought this combo mouse and usb controlled
FM Radio for cheap ($10 + shipping).  It looks really neat, and I pretty
much figured out how to get the radio to work.  Unfortunately, the HID
driver grabs the mouse and I can't grab the device with any other
driver.  To top it off, the VID/PID is 04b4:0001, a very common ID for
this particular mouse (Cypress chipset).

I was wondering if there was any way to get multiple drivers talking to
the same device.  Or, alternatively, can I write a libusb program that
will talk to the radio while the mouse has been grabbed by the HID
driver.

In the process of doing this, I updated a couple of perl scripts that
parse sniffusb 1.8 and snoopypro 0.22 plain text logs.  These scripts
originally came from the hp5400 scanner project.  Let me know if anyone
is interested in them.
