For us, that was part of it. We haven't tried it this year, and are hoping to avoid it altogether. Personally, the occasional 1-2 hour uninstall/re-install of the PSoC drivers on the Classmate is not something I'm willing to risk.
On the other hand, the eStop CCI board (cited above by Jared) is not programmable nor does it require Windows drivers. As advertised, it's completely plug and play, and shows up as a "joystick" in the DS software. Ours recently came in, and we haven't tried it yet. But if it works as advertised, it should be a much cleaner and more reliable solution than the Cypress board.
