1) The PocketPro will not connect, as long as any USB port is used (printer, USB chip, drives etc).
2) Disconnect all USB devices, and connect the PocketPro, and it would be automatically recognised, and working perfectly.
3) Once PocketPro is connected, other USB devices will not be recognised until the PocketPro is disconnected.

Not sure if it is an XP quirk that needs this setup, or a quirk of my PC.
Gee! That is just great if you need to use a USB Mouse or Keyboard

My Dell Dimension 4600 (XP SP3) did not have another USB device connected (except for the internal "USB hubs") and it still has problems
This problem is really inconsistent .
I just installed Calibre (Ubuntu 9.10) on my laptop which the PEz is flaky under XP and it is presently building a "Library" without a hiccup
