appear as a 1MB CD-ROM (so, read-only), which then contains the special(tm)
MS Windows software.  Once loaded, the software switches the device to
another USB mode, and uses non-standard (proprietary) a read-write method.

So long-term it should be possible to make a driver/ghoto plugin for Linux
that makes it converts the photos into the correct format eg. 128x128
uncompressed 12-bit bitmap, or whatever madness it'll use ... all subject to
reverse-engineering the relevant MS Windows drivers/software that comes on
that small driver partition.  *Or* which could make it work as a small
raw flash storage device.

Not an immediate solution.  And even if we fix it for Linux you'll have the
same problem on MacOSX.

This [entirely different] device appears to be known by others; hopefully
presenting itself out of the box as an 8MB Mass storage device:

However, it has much more exciting prospects, in that they have hacks to
turn it into a second display run off the computer.

Back to using it as a mass-storage device, can you post any output from:

  dmesg

after inserting it and which might show an error?
