Hello David,
I was wondering if you have any code relating to USB card drivers. I
am experimenting with a Rainbow iKey 2000 and am not really sure where
to start. If you have any code (even on OS X) I would really
appreciate a look at it. Frankly, I'm not too sure where to go with
it. I'm willing to pay my dues shooting in the dark with this thing
because the product is really neat. Any direction you can give me
would be great, even if it's just some source files.

Thanks,
Stephen
