Philips didn't miss anything and LPC2148 USB is working as it says in 
the Philips documentation.
We made at Olimex ->  USB mouse, USB mass storage, USB audio HID 
devices codes which works without problem whatsoever (don't ask for 
sources these are commercial projects :)

The only problem I can think of with LPC2148 USB is that everybody 
these days rely to use somebody's else code and not to read the 
datasheets and write one by himself.

This is why *everybody* start writting LPC2148 USB code based on KEIL 
Mass-storage demo code which is useless piece of crap as it doesn't 
handle the interrupt flags properly and the code may suddently freeze 
up (actually it's perfect for "demo" it shows something and is useless 
for anything else, so well done Keil!).

C'mon guys use your heads :) I know Internet made it too easy now and 
when you get new project first thing is to search for ready made code 
examples which to re-use but this is definitely not the best approach!

just my 2 cents..
