Yeah, I would expect a device with digital or analogue outputs to be forthcoming at some point. I think the Radio will be really nice - after all, the SBR is! I haven't really seen a decent description of how the server operates, but I haven't seen any reference to a Linux version - it's available to download for Mac and Windows only. The iOS/Android app look really rather nice from the screenshots. TBH, I'm tempted to reversion one of my SBRs to UER to see how it works - and i would do if there was a way of returning it to SBR afterwards.
