@hawhill: Looking forward to your C code when I get back too.

I agree that license discussions can be never-ending religious wars. I just wish I could spend a LOT less time looking for alternatives to the GPL. A lot of the really good stuff is GPL, which prevents me from borrowing significant code snippets from it. GPL is fine until you get a job that does not allow it (even in your spare time).

I like the idea of combining all the eink kindles into a "one button solution" -- you can read the kindle model and other info from the USB port, and decide then which USB protocol to use.

I really wish we could figure out the "magic key" for the DX and DXG (or if there even is one). Any ideas if they use Advanced Toolkit too?
