Yesterday I bought the same model and was wondering if there is already 
any development?

Unfortunately I'm not a programmer (some basic Bash/Perl knowledge 
aside) and therefore can't actively develop a new backend or even modify 
existing backends but I'm willing to help with all the resources I have 
to come to a result in this quest ...

Best regards
Stefan
