        yes, unfortunately there was no dev software there (broken link).  
i did email the contact listed, but i don't expect a reply until the new
year. i was looking in the sane-devel list archive and saw a mail from
someone else at national as well.  has anyone kept in touch with this
gentleman?

        good to know i managed to figure this out :D

        i wrote a program which did what i saw being done in the snoop'ed
windows driver, but it didn't seem to do much.  (it did return the
expected values though).  i suspect i missed some small but important
detail.  have you gotten any further?
        if you want to write the backend feel free (especially if you've
had experience doing sane backends); this isn't high on my list
unfortunately.  i will be willing to help code and test though.
        anyway, thanks for the reply, hopefully we can get something
working before too long. 
                        regards,
