Where will you get a driver if the manufacturer doesn't supply one?  I
guess you can write your own, but I will pay $1000 easily instead of
having to write it.  Since I see you are commercially employed, I would
guess your loaded salary at (at least) the $100/hr mark.  Can you write a
fully debugged, production quality driver in 10 hours?  Spend the money.
Get the driver.  Sleep easy.
