Does anybody know if a USB version of the Mindstorms' IR tower has been

I'm also stuck in an environment with no drivers (yet) for these adapters.
With numerous vendors, devices, and versions, writing one's own drivers is
a dicey proposition at best. :)

(FWIW, a USB-enabled PBrick with a decent cord, like the upcomming Vision
Command system, would be nice to have too.  But one thing at a time :) )
