ok, i got good news and bad news:
the good news is that my brother just finished a driver for it and is going to release it either tonight (cet) or tomorrow, the latter more likely.
he did this in one week, so it doesn't yet (!) work as a quicktime codec that is accessible from other applications and it doesn't yet support the higher resolution 30 fps mode since that involves decompressing the stream from the camera and the documentation to the compression algorithms are not available to the public.
he already contacted phillips about that.
the bad news: he used *my* camera to test his driver, so i won't be able to use/try it until i see my brother again.
just wanted to let you know.
