The Twinhan WebSite is currently unavailable. When I was there the last
time there was no WebSite or driver for the magic box, just a picture.

I don't know about the magic Box, but all dibusb device I'm aware of are
USB 1.1. I saw that KWorld and some other vendors say that it is 2.0 .. it
isn't believe me. :)
I think the vendors mean you can also use the device on a usb2.0
controller, but the speed won't change.

I won't recommend a device to buy, I only can report my experiences.

I downloaded the recent Windows drivers from twinhan.at and I saw a new
pair of USB ids supported by the driver. Maybe this is the Magic Box? I
will commit it to CVS today.

best regards,
