Just an update (mostly confirmation of what stifiling said):

Igor (from Softick) had me test another debug version. Everything seems to be working OK. He said they were shooting for a release in the next week, but it may take up to 2 weeks. Either way, we should have something soon.

does your version work now? share?

It does work, but seeing as they have been so responsive in updating the software to accomodate their customers, I'd rather not screw them over by freely posting it here.

I understand the desire to have this working again though

This is great news! I so can't wait to upgrade my Titan now.

I have got the newest official ROM, Vista, and when I have my MOGUL connected it shows up as a device in "My Computer", can get to it and the storage card (just like you can with a flash drive).
Based on that, I am wondering why a program would be needed for this.....

This type of program makes the card (and extended rom, if done right) a mountable drive (w/ a drive letter) that does not need activestink.

1)it acts just like a 'thumbdrive'
2)No need to have activestink installed (say, a friends computer)
3)no "file conversion" or licence issues (transfer an mp3/wmv file for instance)
4)faster for large file transfers

Gotcha, I wasn't thinking of the possibility of wanting to use it as a flash drive on somebody else's computer.
When I have had long days (and still another 5 hours or so left at work) my logic does not really flow as it should.......

And now that you know, you want it don't you?

**CyberMonkey** · #20 (**permalink**) 04-10-2008, 04:39 PM

actually not really. I always have my thumb drive with me, so I don't really have the need to use my Mogul as a thumb drive.
