Update on when we will receive a new driver?

Same here. I've already suggested they open source the drivers and let the community add support/fix their bugs. I imagine it would also lead to Linux driver support. DisplayLink hasn't seemed to respond to these forums recently. I'd recommend the product to other Mac users I know that need a multi-display setup if it actually worked well enough.

Amen as well... I can't use these drivers without uninstalling them every time I take the MBP on the road, which is too much pain... So a monitor sitting there just staring at me, useless. If this takes much longer, the monitor goes on Kraigslist WITH the adapter.

It's been a month since anything has been responded to by DisplayLink -- Carlo last responded in mid-June and forget about Wim and Seb. Their last responses were way back in April.

I don't know where Carlo is anymore but as for Wim and Seb, they are both actively participating and responding to questions on the Windows side.

Thanks for all the support, DisplayLink.

We could always start posting in that forum, they owe us at least some response. This type of deliberate silence is often a sign of avoiding legal repercussions when something is has or is about to happen (i.e dropping Mac support, Mac developers have quit).
