Any idea where I can obtain a zd1201 device?

Comment 2 Christopher Brown 2007-09-30 15:42:27 UTC
Ebay item # 150166527899

It even looks like the kind of thing that would cause a panic.

Comment 3 John W. Linville 2007-10-05 13:18:21 UTC
Bought that item, it was a zd1211 (not zd1201) -- $20 wasted.

Not sure if "thing that would cause a panic" was meant as a joke?  If so, I 
don't get it.  FWIW, the zd1211 device seems to work great.

So, does anyone know _for_sure_ where I can obtain a zd1201 device?

(In reply to comment #3)

John, my apologies - this was certainly not intentional. I have tried to locate
a 1201 adapter but am unable to do so. If either of you are able to locate one
please let me know by way of this bug and I will attempt to resolve this.

When the build reference above complete, it should resolve this issue.  The 
identical issue was reported and resolved upstream.

I'm going to go ahead and close this -- please reopen if the problem somehow 
persists.
