Apple have confirmed that the latest Mac OS X Leopard release, 10.5.3, fixes the GPS-CS1 support issue. If you raised a bug with Apple reporting this issue, you should have an official response.
Readers of this site have also confirmed that both Intel and PPC versions of 10.5.3 now support the Sony GPS-CS1.

Haven't tested this yet myself as my PowerBook is still running 10.4.x
It's great news as it has been a long, long wait for this issue to be resolved.
There are better loggers with newer chipsets and much more advanced software available now than the Sony though, it wouldn't be my first choice for a GPS logger. Nevertheless, if you already have one or happen to pick one up really cheap, you can now use it with your Mac.
I reviewed the GPS-CS1 on September 15, 2006.
