I don't see where it actually gets NULL terminated - all 16 bytes come
directly from the device.

While it's probably ok to trust it, I think we'd still be safer off if
we just make this a char[17] array to always have our NULL terminating
string. That way we're guaranteed we'll never run over our memory
boundaries.

Also sorry for the slowly trickling in comments - I'm just noting things
as I dig through the whole interface :).
