far behind is a bit of an mis-statement. the cards are older and haven't
changed much, and so the drivers are older and haven't changed much.

its unfortunate that thomas charbonnel's hsdpconf does not work for the
digiXXXX series, because everything (or almost everything) that they
control also exists on the digiXXXX series devices. 

if somebody had the time, this would probably be rather easy to fix.
