I just received my Space Navigator and hooked it to my macpro; works like a charm! The maya 6/7 scripts work beautifully with 8.5 and I'm very happy with the product.
I used to (still do) own the spacemouse500usb but have switched to Macs and was forced to 'upgrade'.
Anyway, my issue is with the following. While using the Navigator, it floods the script editor with it's commands:

Can you please disable this in your next release? Of if you or anyone else on this board knows how, can I make some change to the scripts that will disable this output?
It really affects the script editor's usefullness when you have to spend so much time tracking down the maya commands lost between the Magellan's flood.
It should be possible as you guys did it for the windows version! That too did this at one point, until it was fixed in a later release!
please let me know if there's any hope!
Thanks very much!
Alex
EDIT: Just now I also noticed that if you leave the script editor open while using the Navigator, the translations get so choppy it's unusable!! Closing the script editor returns functionallity.
