Danny:
 
When SSB first came out.. it was incredibly expensive for us Average Hams...who could not afford let alone dream of a Collins...
 
But with increased usage.. other manufacturers came into the market with different less expensive designs ... and the rest of us could afford to jump on the bandwagon...
 
FM was equivalently too expensive ... so we used Surplus commercial police and taxi radios... manufacturers took note... and came out with inexpensive ham radio gear...
 
Digital had a similar history.. early expensive modems... and little usage.. then the miracle of the computer sound card and it became affordable to every ham....
 
So do not discount DV at this early stage in its development .. because of the price...
 
Some ham will figure out an inexpensive solution.. probably based on Sound Cards...

Those answer my questions.  It is NOT cheap,  not readily available for me
to use in my computer with already owned equipments.  Let me know when it
is.
