interesting!

there was a big "who ha" on the creative forum some time back over 3'rd party drivers that where more stable than creative's ones & they put out a cease & desist & got ripped apart for 300 pages, it was quite ugly, maybe they worked out that there driver code base sucked from day dot to current date, interesting to see, this can only mean good things for creative customers! (TBH i bet there hoping for a OSX port to be done as it will = more sales for them,)
