Re: [LAU] Gumstix and jack, softsynths, etc?

I'd be interested in hearing if anyone's used Efika boards in this type of

things are pretty inexpensive (US $99) and seem to have pretty decent power
given their very small size and low cost:

I put in an order a few days ago, and can't wait to get my hands on it and
get Debian onto it. Looks like lots of potential for interesting embedded
apps...
