Didn't have time over the weekend to get anything running. While docked it works great scanning interactively with the keyboard wedge software (it immediately puts the scan result into notepad, for instance), but I'm having difficulty finding free software that understands the vcom mode, which presents a com port over the USB link.
Because I was busy, I haven't booted my machine to FreeBSD, so haven't tried, for instance, Alexandria (http://alexandria.rubyforge.net) If all else fails, this will be a great incentive to learn Python or Ruby, I suppose...
