I have this entry:

T:  Bus=01 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=02 Cnt=01 Dev#=  4 Spd=480 MxCh= 0
D:  Ver= 2.00 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS=64 #Cfgs=  1
P:  Vendor=0e21 ProdID=0700 Rev= 1.00
S:  Manufacturer=COWON Systems, Inc.
S:  Product=iAUDIO U3
S:  SerialNumber=06042610282302D9C10000E07DA45D4C
C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=80 MxPwr= 90mA
I:  If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 2 Cls=08(stor.) Sub=06 Prot=50 
Driver=usb-storage
E:  Ad=81(I) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 512 Ivl=0ms
E:  Ad=02(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 512 Ivl=0ms

So this is indeed 480.
