Great concept and design, but software has a lot of problems
I agree with some of the assessments of the PowerUSB device.  It has a lot of promise for doing programmable power control via USB, but the software developer interface is very flaky and seems to have problems.  The device driver for it appears to be a sample HID device driver, so it doesn't show up in the device list as a named device that can be recognized.  Seems like most of the work went into the hardware, but  it seems like very little attention was given to the software.<br /><br />Also, documentation on the programmable API needs some corrections and more information than what it provides.
