    Received a PASS update email from Panasonic and it has this notice – first I’d heard it and I haven’t seen it mentioned on the forums so figured I’d pass it along.

    Spoke to the Duel people last night and they said they were caught by surprise with the omission of the Duel driver in 10. as they were that Apple had put their own driver for it in 10.5 They said they are working on it but have no timeline.
    Calls to their tech support may hasten development.

    I made a clone of my system before I switched to Snow Leopard. So I just boot from the USB drive with the clone whenever I need to dump a P2 card. Sucks to have to do that, but it’s better than having to go back to 10.5
