Beware. At least some of the FPGA boards with a USB connector only use it for programming and power. The USB signals usually go into a tiny micro. It knows how to program the FPGA but there isn't any simple way to use it as a data path. I could easily have missed something wonderful on newer board. I do remember being surprised when I figured that out the first time. -- These are my opinions, not necessarily my employer's.
