The firewire ones aren't supported at all (yet), the USB one is I think,
but you need to load firmware, which is a pain.

My impression (not having tried one of these) is that you are better off
going for a manufacturer that makes class compliant USB devices, or
waiting for firewire support (dont hold your breath!).
