Which I very much expect to drop as production ramps up and competitors
enter the market. I don't think Cypress have much competition for now,
so the demand for the c

I don't know about that. The chips themselves are still running about
$30 in volume. Plus, the circuit board

Well, for FX2 we're still missing the capability to flash a firmware,
which is why regardless of how far we we get with FX3, I'm likely to
keep the issue open until I get a change to sort that last part out.

Hi,
I just pushed a patch, kindly provided by Federico Manzan, that adds FX3
support to the libusbx fxload sample. See libusbx issue #29 for details.
Copying Markus, as he expressed interest in FX3 support in the past, and
is lucky enough to have access to such hardware.
