Dallas/Micron changed something between rev D and E.  I've never seen a 
description of that change.

As far as I know, the firmware in the TBolt's isn't hackable and I've never 
seen any comments about being able to do low level things like talk to the 
DS1620 using commands from the serial port.

So far, anybody who has been interested has just changed to an old rev of the 
chip.
