I am very interested in this gadget. I played with one in a store

today.  Tiny!
The main things holding me back are:
1) the keyboard would take a LOT of getting used to - it's soooo

small!
2) the display model in the store had a glitchy, intermittent trackpad

button. I'm sure it took a lot of abuse in the past month or so it's

been there, but that's still not encouraging.
3) Does ALSA support USB 2.0 devices yet? (There's no firewire port,

so BeBob is irrelevant). I'd like to get decent (well under 10 ms)

latency at 2 channels in/out for use in live performances, and

possibly higher channel count at higher latency for use as an

ultraportable Ardour box :-) Something like the M-audio Fast Track

Ultra would be nice - iff it works with alsa!  But I'd need MIDI too

to hook up foot controllers.  The Edirol FA66 would be perfect - but

it's firewire.
What are my options?  Anything? :-(
