The short answer is yes. The long answer is that despite the fact
PyUSB 1.0 is still alpha, features implemented has shown being quite
stable, if you take the download ratio compared to problems people
have been facing. But you should look on features that are currently
available. For example, you want what to retrieve string descriptors,
you will have to cope with ctrl_transfer function directly, as
standard control requests support is not yet implemented, and, as
explained earlier, there is no prevision on when it will be... Also,
be prepared to change your code when updating to a new release, as in
alpha stage API is subject to change (either in interface or in
semantics). If that risks are ok for you, go ahead, I agree 1.0 is a
much better API.
