Confusion over drivers vs. driver interfaces

Subject: Confusion over drivers vs. driver interfaces

I'm new to writing kernel drivers, so I'm trying to get a better grasp of when I should be using a kernel extension and when I should stay out of the kernel and just use a driver interface.

For example, if I was trying to write an application that interacted with a Palm or some other handheld device that connects via USB, should I be looking into kernel extensions or using a driver interface based on the USB family?
