I'm kind of scared to dive into the complexity of PD but I guess I should
give it a try...

As for thr EEE, I'm still in hope to get it properly running for minimal
audio but I seem to hit the wall glitchwise. I'm sure it's somehow possible
(littlegptracker eats only about 10% of the CPU) but all config I've tried
never lead me to smooth playback. Probably setting up a proper linuxRT on it
should make it ok but all my attempts lead to failure. I enjoy it a lot as a
portable development machine (I do a lot of coding in the bus) but so far
the audio part has only given me disapointment. According to some,
re-compiling a RT xandros kernel works but even a major geek like me tends
to be turned of by the lack of clean solutions for that. I want to spend
time coding or doing music, not configuring kernels grabbing pieces of
information all over the place.

It's such a neat inexpensive machine tho, it's a shame not to be able to use
it for music on the go/ gigs and stuff. Probably one day I'll be able to fix
it.
