Agreed with latter! ;-)
I'm a little surprised why full duplex isn't implemented yet for
SB16. It is _not_ dificult at all. Thomas Sailer did it in his
radio modem driver (using SB16). The only thing you have care about
is this mix of 8 and 16 bit samples. So i can't see the point of
writing separate driver. I'll try to do something with current OSS
drivers but can't guarantee anything ;-)
