 For real-time audio purposes it is certainly not the best choice, but
 then, what do you expect for that price? And what do you expect from a
 device that is made for educational purposes, not real-time,
 low-latency, pro audio? 
yes, and by doing it they have probably pushed others to try harder, and be more
open (in fact sometimes a lot more open than Broadcom has allowed for the
