SB Live confusion.

Has anyone tried those newer SB Live drivers yet? Here is the source of my confusion. The LW3 drivers from Creative are versions: 5. 12. 01. 3107 The Gateway drivers are: 5. 12. 01. 3041 The Creative drivers are early May, whereas the Gateway drivers are June.

Here is the source of my confusion. The LW3 drivers from Creative are versions:
5.12.01.3107
 
The Gateway drivers are: 5.12.01.3041
 
The Creative drivers are early May, whereas the Gateway drivers are June. The Gateway drivers are also a few KB larger.
 
Conesquentially, I am a little hesitant to install them without fully knowing what they do/fix/enable/disable.
 
I could test for myself, but it is already the end of the week, and I am getting lazy!
