I'm not aware of any work towards HD support, and since I don't have one, 
there is little chance that I can contribute. However, if you take the time to 
create some USB traffic logs, I can at least roughly assess how different the 
HDs' communication is compared with the supported devices. Please have a look 
at http://www.tanzband-scream.at/line6/usblog.html for instructions how to 
obtain this information, and send the files to me if you are successful 
producing them. The result can be anything between "Oh, it's almost the same 
as the PODxt Pro" to "Hm, I can't proceed without an HD for experimenting 
myself", so there is no guarantee that your efforts will pay off, although it 
would be definitely interesting to have a look.

	Thanks & kind regards,
