Do you intend to duplicate all functionality found on windows eventually?*
Could we use Sphere AF + your driver + Skype for HD video (720p) on OS X 
eventually?

If the answer is a "yes" and "yes" then I'll definitely pay for your 
software!
Provided it's ready within 12 months, beyond that I'll probably be 
looking at another camera!

For the moment I prefer to run this device in windows XP via Parallels 
desktop.
That way I get all the functionality I paid for. Thanks for your feed-back!

Cheers,
Jed
