Sorry, I didn't say that very well. I mean, nobody seems to be using
the COP port on the specific board I have - the connector is not
stuffed and nobody in the (English) support forums is using it. They
all seem to be teenagers anyway :( The hardware I'm using is the Kuro
Box (www.revogear.com). It's basically a NAS appliance they are
selling with something vaguely resembling a SDK and some support for
people to build custom apps on it.

I assumed they wouldn't tell me anything about that, wanting to sell
me another $195 unit... I'll try though.
