Programming Info for Toshiba LCD Module?

Cheeze asks: "I found a odd piece of hardware that is a USB LCD Control Module made by Toshiba. There is no info on this device anywhere that I could find, and there are no FCC numbers on the device to look up. The device is an embedded lighted LCD with 1 silver button on the left side, 5 non-labeled black buttons on the top, one volume knob on the right side, and 6 buttons labeled 'internet' on the bottom. When plugged in under Windows 2000 Pro, it shows up as a Human Interface Device, installs some basic windows software, but doesn't actually control the hardware. If something like this is programmable, that would be REAL nice, but if I could find ANY control software for it for any operating system, I would be happy."

"The only descriptors on the back label are:

LCD Control Module
MODEL NO. PMD-C0014
D/M: S9728-3
KTC M/N: E03794004

I looked all over for those numbers and didn't find any info."

    Run this through google: Toshiba LCD USB -camera HID Infinia. If you remove the "Infinia" you get a lot more results, but they're a lot less pertinent.

    Included are directions to working with it under win9x; you could probably bug the linux guys about it based on that knowledge.

    Good luck, i'd like to know where to get my hands on one of these! =)
