Not sure, but I happen to have a bunch of M&S vouchers [long story
involving mother with tastes that differ radically from mine] so I
might buy one, plug it in, and see what it does.  It has a Mac driver
which might be reverse-engineered.  Does anyone know of any Mac or
Windoze software for snooping USB?
