Ah, that is interesting.  I found Windows drivers for the old iButtons,
together with the big Java thing that will drive the Java iButtons under
Windows or Unix.  In other words as far as I could see there were no

Is mksolo freely available or is it part of the Schlumberger SDK that
you have to pay for?
