Wait, what?
I've been doing way too much reading of USB specs (and the hub.c, message.c, and musb driver source code) for work lately, and even though I'm definitely suffering from early onset of Alzheimer's, I distinctly remember reading that Isochronous and Bulk endpoints were only allowed at High Speed (480Mbps).
At Full speed (12Mbps), IIRC, you get Interrupt and Control endpoints, and that's pretty much it.
