If you write a driver for this I'll pay you $200 and I'm sure you can sell the driver on top of that:

This device is $10 cheepier than all the other mac video in USB devices and is USB 2.0 which allows it to get double the size 720 vs. 320 something resolution. It's just sad that mac users are stuck with a solution 1/3 as good for more money.

$200 to whoever writes the driver. I know I can get a video solution for this price, but I'd like a driver so we all can benefit from this great affordable and compact product!

This prize is still being offered. Can I get this thread moved to development?

I don't know anything about developing device drivers, but you might get a better response if you track down an open-source (x86) project that supports this device already.

I've looked everywhere can't find anything open source that supports any USB 2.0 video in devices

I'm going to use the TV Wonder USB 2 for now. but I'd still like to find something for this $50 product.
