I've been using it a very long time. Did the subscription thing. Etc etc That said, I'd very much like to know where on the horizon do USB 2.0 highspeed drivers sit? I've seen that current is now into 6.0 but from what I've read USB functionality is not even on the agenda. In my research I've noted that Freebsd got it's usb driver code from NetBSD but that isochronous and high-speed functionality are not currently implimented. I've asked about it now for more than 2 years with rarely a reply more insightful or relevent than . 'Do you have ehci driver loaded? You can't use the highspeed without it.' Please anyone within sight of my email, please give me and the rest of our Freebsd users some idea of when this will be working or what's holding it up. I even voluntered my time and skills to work on this problem if someone would reply and heard nothing. Linux has High-Speed USB, Windows has High-Speed USB, I'd very much like to use this connectivity. Thank you for your time and efforts on everything. Davon
