      I would normally think that competing in the USB dongle market would 
be folly, but if there really is a gaping hole here, perhaps Elecraft 
could fill it -- especially since they've recently waded into the 
production side of such toys :).
      I do appreciate the need: I recently watched Ki7el, who is an IT 
professional by day, struggle to find a USB soundcard for his recently 
completed Ensemble transciever that offered stereo bit-rates compatible 
with the various SDR programs.
