functionality is pretty much what you'd get from the other two drivers 
(except the datadirect driver that ships w/6.1 has a bug with unicode 
data in stored procedure OUTPUT vars, you can contact MM for updated 
drivers if this is an issue, neither ms or jTDS showed that issue which 
was why we tested jTDS actually).

we didn't do any specific stability test but the speed tests were high 
load & ran for a couple of hours. nothing bad happened. we did 
inadvertently put the driver through some very minor sustained loading 
(forgot to swap it out & it was left & used on a development box for 
about 5 days or so). it is used in a couple of other products they've 
listed on their site. beyond that, no idea about its suitability for 
production.

nope. are you volunteering?

i recall that pete freitag blogged about this before:
