Some folks have had luck upgrading the firmware on SOME instances of
that hardware with the latest firmware from SCM for the SCR-331.

If it works then you now have a reader that acts like a

if it don't work I suspect you have a very light paperweight at the end,

Good luck.
Thanks very much for the tips. I've downloaded the firmware and Windows
installer, now I just need to get someone (at work) with a Windows box
that isn't totally locked down, to run the firmware update. My NMCI
windows box told me to drop dead when I tried it.
BTW, I once saw this reader working correctly on an FC6 installation,
with a lot of hand installed packages. Too bad that the "improvements"
to the code broke something that was working.
