It was lucky you left HTML attachments on, otherwise your message would
have been totally unreadable.

I, for one,  would be grateful if future postings were made in a more
acceptable text-only format which could be sensibly displayed in RISC OS
news and mail clients.

I completely agree myself.

Anyway here's my original e-mail hopefully with no unintended HTML

Rather than a newer, faster Iyonix, surely Castle should be thinking about
hardware support. It's a shame with the falling price's of hardware that we
can't use more than a fraction of the USB / PCMIA devices that are out there.
Personally I would love to see a driver for music and audio, i.e USB-MIDI or a 
USB mixer.
I'm not saying it's Castle's or anyone's responsibility to produce these drivers; 

but..

1 ) The Iyonix has got the slots/sockets, shame not to use them.

2 ) Accessibility to hardware would encourage software development.
3 ) I think the Iyonix's future depends on whether it can be used with modern hardware.
I am a programmer myself, but interfacing with hardware is an area I know nothing about. 
However like most programmers I could happily use an API for any device..
