That happens quite often. Few weeks back someone sends mail saying he 
has got new version of Terratec Cinergy T Stick Dual RC. Old version 
uses Afatech AF9015 chips whilst new revision is ITE Technologies IT9135 
and USB ID is same. Those are quite different chips and having different 
drivers. In such cases it could be quite challenging to get it working 
as both drivers are thinking it is for me according to USB ID.

Antti
