I'll give you a report either later tonight or tomorrow. I do know that my Logitech Quickcam 4000's work with it fine but they're unmodified at this time. ......

... Hi Ken, When you use a USB/Serial connection, the OS provides a new serial port to applications. At least this is true on Windows, I have not yet tried it ...
