Funny you should mention that. Gary <gmp@superlink.net> has done a
driver for the 620S, but he did it without any support from Acer, and
he wasn't very happy with the results, so it wouldn't be a bad idea to
follow up. At least you have somebody to talk to at Acer :-)

I have a 620U (USB connect), and I'd really like to write a driver for
it. Is your Acer contact in Australia? If so, I could have a chat
with him. I'd also be prepared to do the work, especially if they pay
for it. We should probably follow this up off-line.
