Also, it's still a work in progress, so use with care :-)
The biggest disadvantage for development right now is that it isn't
BeOS compatible anymore, so your driver would not work anymore under
BeOS (if that's a requirement). Once Haiku is actually better usable
for driver development and every-day use, this shouldn't be much of a
concern, though.
