This improve compatibility with programs written to access HP9114 floppy disk drives which are using the device ID to identify the device address of attached drives.

Thanks, Christoph, for this update.

However, here is a warning for HP Portable users that are using the PIL-Box and ILPer to access DOS-formatted disk images such as found on my Portable Plus page:
ILPer 1.44 will not work correctly with the Portable (Plus). Use ILPer 1.43 instead.
The cause is the change of the mass storage ID, now the Portable assumes the mass storage is a legacy HP9114 drive and attempts to use the SS/80 protocol, which is not implemented yet.

J-F: Thanks for this note clarifying the issue with PP and v1.44. I was about 30 minutes away from using this and would have been very puzzled indeed.

FYI - the link to your Portable Plus Page in your post is not valid (I was going to look for new updates...)
