I don know for others, but if I was to design a device, and it have to have only one light. Iĺl go that way - the light will be on when the device is connected, and will flash during data transfer. I do not see anything strange with the design. If you do not turn on the light how the user will know that the device is successfully connected? <snip>
Hi All, I was going to stay out of this one because my *first* thought was there's nothing weird about a "ready" indicator. When it's "on", it's connected and ready, when it's busy it's flashing. If you plug it in and nothing happens you know there's a problem. Then I thought I'd get laughed off the list for being "old-fashioned." I'm glad I'm not the only one thinking about electromechanically disinclined users. ;-) my 2 cents, too. - Carl -- ____________________________________________________________________ C. E.
