	here, one thing to say... the GS DOES stereo, shame on Apple that did
	not build the stereo line to the headphone jack. Don't believe me?
	After reading the GS hardware ref, my friend built his own stereo 
	card by using 3 transistors and one audio amplifier. The stereo hard
	ware is IN the GS, but all you need are 3 transistors to correctly
	send the sound to different channel, that's it!
