>From Googling (same URL that Popey also found) /that/ device might first appear as a 1MB CD-ROM (so, read-only), which then contains the special(tm) MS Windows software. Once loaded, the software switches the device to another USB mode, and uses non-standard (proprietary) a read-write method. So long-term it should be possible to make a driver/ghoto plugin for Linux that makes it converts the photos into the correct format eg. 128x128 uncompressed 12-bit bitmap, or whatever madness it'll use ... all subject to reverse-engineering the relevant MS Windows drivers/software that comes on that small driver partition. *Or* which could make it work as a small raw flash storage device. Not an immediate solution. And even if we fix it for Linux you'll have the same problem on MacOSX.
