The USB cable is supported at full speed.
</P>
<P>
+ Experimental support for FTDI 2232 based devices has been added. They are seen by Impact as a Parallel
+ Cable III. These devices are currently significantly slower than every other supported cable.

The library is called <i>libusb-driver</i> as it was developed to support the USB cable, but later
extended to also support parallel cables.
