So I am just coming back to trying to support the Arduino Mega.  I  
think the situation is improved, but not perfect.  The Arduino Mega's  
pin numbering mess will always make things confusing, IMHO.  The  
latest Firmata is included in Arduino 0019 RC2, so that's the thing to  
use to test it. Here's how to get Arduino 0019 RC2:
