I have spent the last few days learning more about USB than
I ever wanted to. The good news out of all this is that I
am now able to talk to the phone using the straight USB cable
on both Windows and Linux. It would also work on a Mac as
the library I use is cross platform, but I don't actually
have a Mac to test with.
On Windows, it bypasses the broken FutureDial driver. On
Linux and Mac no driver is needed.
I haven't done a complete test or hooked in lots of code.
My current plan is to finish the code for editing a phonebook
entry (all new in 0.7) and release a test of 0.7 which
has the new phonebook viewer, editor and import code.
After that I will return back to USB issues.
