You could obtain usbsnoop logs from Windows

It is unlikely that we could do anything with them any time soon, but 
having them available to interested developers is the first step.

To support this device it likely involves determining the encryption 
mechanism/keys of UPEK's windows drivers which would require 
chinese-wall reverse engineering efforts.
