DL-3xxx OSX Support

So what's the word on this? USB3 debuted on Macs in June, and by now the entire Mac line is USB3-only (OK, except for the Mac Pro...)

This is an excellent business opportunity for DisplayLink, as most Macs are laptops & there is otherwise no reasonable docking station solution for Macs (there is a single shipping Thunderbolt dock, which is 2x the price and less functionality than many vendors' DisplayLink-based solutions, HW-wise).

Not asking for a ironclad date here, but it would be nice to understand what the current state of the drivers is, and whether it's still DisplayPort's goal to support OS X in the "near future" (the latest driver is now 6 months old...)
