 * Tips:
 * Something to watch - IRC User Stuzz lets us know about some development going on with Linux based handheld gaming device to make it a portable audio device. There's talk of developers 'racing' each other to get music software ported to the Pandora, and one mentioned he'd had a look at porting Ardour over.  Audacity is about done already.  Also MIDI is working (plugging a USB-MIDI cable in), Seq24 and ZynAddSubFx are underway.  See these links:
