I gather the wcmUSB.c assignments were based on the attempted linux
driver Waltop had.  If true those correspondences  were determined by
Waltop.  I presume they based that on features, resolution, and maybe
pressure levels.  I haven't really tried to determine correspondence
with features.  The Waltop's can have things like pad buttons or hot
keys, scroll wheels, rings, and pucks but they apparently aren't
compatible with the Wacom equivalents which is why Nick is putting
them on the evdev driver.

The major difference I see between Waltop tablets is that the latest
Waltop models have battery-less styli and resolutions comparable to
the Intuos4.  So there are at least two classes.  Three if resolution
is considered.

I'll go with the wcmUSB.c until Nick decides differently.  And by the
way there are a lot more Waltop PIDs in wcmUSB.c than those covered on
the DIGImend site.  Right now there are seven data files which should
be it for while.  That's mostly why I was thinking of one class.
