I'm using the 40 at home, works very well. At work we use a 24, also
with Linux and that works great too. I recently did a presentation for
Horus (http://horus.hku.nl/) for which I used the 24, no problems
whatsoever, except for the minor bug that JACK will crash the first time
you run it (known issue).
DICE based devices won't work with a number of FireWire controllers
though, like the onboard JMicron chipset of my notebook. So I bought a
cheap PCIe Express Card with a Via chipset and that works quite well.
You can check which controllers are compatible here:

The fact that its marked as "experimental" is because no stable release
supports the dice-devices. And we didn't yet have the time to create a 2.1
release...
Have fun,

That was a Focusrite Saffire Pro 10 IO FireWire
device.
That one looks nice. Unfortunately, it seems that it's discontinued, and
models 24 and 40 are still marked as experimental (need ffado from svn)
on the ffado website.
