I have been told that the audio ports on the IRIS are for 8-bit sound
only.  Other than 64 kbps telephone speech, there is not very much
one can do with only 8-bit sound.  

I've been using the Personal IRIS for a couple of months at work and I
really like the machine.  Are there any plans to develop a 16-bit
audio interface for professional work?  Are the other ports fast enough?

Has anyone out there interfaced an IRIS to D/A's and A/D's, with
drivers?
