I would be interested in working on a driver for this (I've done some
work on our Yukon driver), but I don't have any hardware. If someone
were to give me (or make a several-month extended loan - at least 4 or 5
months) some hardware, I would probably be able to get something working
in a month or two.
I looked into buying a card a few months back, but the prices were a
little higher than I was willing to spend on something I didn't actually
need... once the price drops below US$75 or so, I might consider it again.
