    New SpaceNavigator is cheap, lacks Mac support

    Many posters have lusted for the 3Dconnexion SpaceNavigator but were put off by the $250 price for an 'i-Mate on steroids'. The newest version is now just $59, but doesn't have Mac OS drivers or SDK.



    Can some of our coders take a look at whether it could be read from Cocoa and other serial I/O code? It can be twisted left/right like the i-Mate, but also supports tilting front/back and left/right, panning front/back and left/right, and panning up/down. And it has two buttons.

    My guess is it could work with USBOverdrive. And if it is a HID (which I believe it is), a custom driver should not be much of a problem.
