Is there any point in reporting specific devices that work with umass(4) any more, or is the assumption these days that anything that will work on a Windows or Linux box, without additional drivers, will also work on FreeBSD? The cheapo 'pen drive' that I picked up on ebay yesterday surprised me by just working, with no pain whatsoever... I'm wondering if maybe I shouldn't be so surprised by these small victories :-) If it is true that pretty much everything just works, the manpage and hardware list should probably be updated -- right now the manpage gives the impression that only a few devices are supported. I'll put together a PR unless someone in the know tells me I'm totally wrong about this.
