    That's correct, Jeff, some USB devices are OK like sound cards.
Unfortunately, USB serial devices are not permitted, so rig control will be
tricky. There are workarounds like the Pignology, or more recently
Bluetooth LE with which Apple decided to be more open for some reason. On
Android, on the other hand, as long as your device supports USB in "OTG"
mode, all is fine.

   Looks like I need to put the Android/iOS release higher in my priority
list :)
