Hackers,
  How tricky is USB going to be to support?  Some of the mechanisms
such as hot plug/unplug, auto-detection and driver allocation, addressing,
and etc. don't look easy... The paradigm feels like a cross between the
PC-Card stuff (for the plug/unplug) and a PCI-bus (for addressing and
detection).

Anybody toyed with supporting USB yet?  I'm curious what angle to
attack this subsystem from.

Cheers,
-Troy
