Latest Stable 1.5 Mac Driver = FAIL

Despite all the bad posts these devices have gotten, I went ahead and bought one (VillageTronic ViBook Plus, DL-195-based in case you're wondering). I have to say I'm actually rather impressed. Granted, I haven't had enough seat time with it to really see all the nitty gritty, but but based on first impressions, the responsiveness is quite good, plays Youtube videos just fine (a little stuttery in fullscreen, but still very watchable), and had no issues so far on my Mac Mini. I think DisplayLink will have a real hit on their hands once they sort out some of the suspend issues, and the USB 3.0 version comes along (along with USB 3.0 Macs).
