The driving force behind loading the firmware after connection is that 
my design only has a 128 bit EEPROM.  This keeps our hardware costs down 
for the device.  The device only knows its VID, PID, DID on power up.  
I'm doing a C0 load.  This is one of the cool features of the EZ-USB 
family of parts.
