Good point about the Cypress acquisition. While I was investigating part of the driver code recently, I realized it was based on FX2 sample code. The development kit that I got, on the other hand, was pre-FX2. The article notes that Cypress acquired Anchor Chips, the original creator of EZ-USB, in 1999, which would seem to line up perfectly with the time frame in which the Pakon scanners were developed.
