The Lide 30 seems to have been replaced by the Lide 35. This latter has USB 2, which my PB doesn't offer. Normally I wouldn't be concerned with this as for data transfer USB 2 is supposed to be backwardly-compatible with uSB1.1 (ust slower, of course). However the spec also says that it gets its power from the USB connection. Does anyone know if powering a USB 2.0 device from a USB 1.1 port will work?
What was the spec on the Lide 30? Was it USB 1.1 or 2?
the lide30 is usb1. power is power so you should have no problem powering a usb2 device from a usb1 port.
if you fancy an lide30 - theres one on ebay for �55

the lide35 looks like it should do what you need it to do.
jessops sell them for around �60.
