OK, I need some opinions here. I recently saw a classified ad for one of these guys for $100 CAD, but maybe I can get him down a bit. Here are the specs:

Features
# 2 x 2 USB audio interface
# Ideal for mobile operation
# 2 microphone inputs (XLR balanced) with 48v phantom power
# Stereo microphone input (1/8”)
# 2 high-impedance instrument/line inputs (1/4” balanced)
# 2 analog outputs (unbalanced 1/4” @ -10dBv)
# Stereo line output (1/8”)
# Stereo headphone output (1/8”) with level control knob
# Gain control knob for each input channel (+40 dB max)
# Zero-latency hardware direct monitoring with software level control
# Mono/stereo direct monitoring
# USB-powered (no wall wart or batteries needed)

And here's a pic:


This retails for about $149 USD, which is about... $180 CAD these days with the exchange being what it is.

Anyways, what do you guys think? Good deal? Do I really need it? I'm looking for something to preamp my inputs into the computer (e.g. vocals, miked guitar amps, direct guitar signals) and this looks like a nice, clean package.
