Corrections to: USB 3.0 Technology: Comprehensive Guide to SuperSpeed USB
The MindShare book USB 3.0 Technology: Comprehensive Guide to SuperSpeed USB (ISBN-13: 978-0983646518) is a pretty decent reference for implementers of USB 3.0 / Gen1; but is published with a few factual mistakes – places where their tables incorrectly copy the standard. This notebook post is here to gather the mistakes I've found, so I can report them the publisher all at once.
Issues thus far (page numbers for first edition):

- p300, Figure 13-11: The
