I got mine from 
http://boardzoo.com/index.php/new-products/bone-audio.html#.U2_-VFd7_uw  
boardzoo.com  Cost $29.95  

Few other notes:

I will likely need to modify this board to include an audio amp to drive a 
speaker and an on-board mic.  

I tried to play audio directly from Java - don't think it's gonna work 
without some indepth knowledge of the Linux and the Java audio.  My most 
likely solution will be to simply execute an external program (most likely 
madplay). 
aplay will only play wav files, I would rather use mp3 due to space.

I've installed maplay using 
 apt-get install madplay
(i've tried mpg123 - but didn't seem to work and did not want to fight that 
battle 

Good luck.  I know very little of Linux, so this was a bit frustrating form 
me, I hope my notes help 
I'm not entirely sure yet, but think I will execute (from Java) lame to 
record.
