Dear Philip,
I think that I've inadvertently switched the order by which usb_control_msg_send()
and memcpy() are called. I'm very sorry for not doing my tests, but (as I had said
before) at the moment I don't have my device with me.
I'm about to send a v2 series.
Thanks very much for testing on my behalf.
Regards,
Fabio
