We had similar Problems on a Samsung S3C2400 CPU. The following Sticks are
working with our board.

- Transcend JetFlash TS32MJFLASH OT; Vendor=0ea0 ProdID=6803 Rev= 1.00
- Transcend JetFlash TS32MJF2B; Vendor=0ea0 ProdID=2168 Rev= 2.00
- Sharkoon 64 MB; Vendor=0d7d ProdID=110e Rev= 2.00
- USB007 BIU32MB; Vendor=0ea0 ProdID=6803 Rev= 1.00
- Sharkoon USB 2.0 FLEXI-DRIVE 64 MB; Vendor=0ea0 ProdID=2168 Rev= 2.00
- Belkin F5U026ea16MB; Vendor=0ea0 ProdID=6803 Rev= 1.00
- Yakumo Quicksave 2.0; Vendor=0ea0 ProdID=2168 Rev= 2.00

But be warned. Many USB-Stick manufacturers often change the internally used 
usb controller - without changing the name of the stick or even the order number.
This happens two times for us. In both cases the new usb controller did not work,
so we had to search for another usb stick.

USB007 seems to provide some manufacturers of embedded devices with huge unit
numbers. So this is perhaps a good address to start searching for sticks with a 
long availability.

Regards,
Martin
