Let's also not forget http://jphoto.sourceforge.net for
those PTP cameras ... there are a fair number of folk
(like me :) who prefer such Java tools where they're
available. And jPhoto has been working quite nicely

Hello all,
I spent the whole weekend forcing a win2000 CD that was meant only
for Dell computers to install on my (very much non-Dell) compuer... great
fun ;-) It all paid off though. The usb sniffer worked perfectly.
