Jarod, did you ever get the gen 1 blaster working for 56k IR devices?  I
know around last Christmas you said it was on your list but I don't recall
seeing a message on the lirc list of you fixing it.  I've been known to miss
things from time to time though.

I ended up getting a gen2 blaster ultimately so the issue lost it's urgency
for me.  Now I'm just curious :)
