By the way, USB3 is now hitting the mainstream, with PCI boards,
motherboards, disk drives and USB sticks from all the major vendors.
It provides a significant bandwidth boost over USB2 (it's designed for
3Gbits/sec, both ways simultaneously). This would be very useful to
any newly designed USR

Agreed.
There's a cheap one here, with USB2 and Spartan3, only 70€ (<$100)

Or this one for 145€?

The RF range is interesting, from 70 MHz to 2.2 GHz.
For USRP you would need 2 different boards to cover that range,
or invest much more money into the WBX transceiver.

You just ad a second interface that is HID, which is available on every
platform and easy to handle. That's how all the soundcard-like DDS do it.
Ah, yes of course.
The only problem is that Microsoft promised in 2005 to implement UAC2,

For sure. But you have to commit that your usecase is more the corner
case then the mainstream. With your CPLD mentions below this sho
