The USB2 issue might be the cause of your MD5 error on firmware. I use a card reader to put the v5setup.bin onto the SD Card (lots faster for 127MB transfer)
Just to add to your post, the USB issue isn't limited to just Intel USB chips on WinXP, it is also an issue on Linux systems using the Intel chipset. I don't experience the USB problem often, but it is drastically reduced if I have no other USB devices plugged in when transferring files to the PEZ. I am a Linux user BTW.
