oooh!! hadnt considered that. I always thought the the mic-in and the
line-out could work at the same time :(. Then i could have put 2 of 4 UTP
wires to mic in ( may-be through an amplifier) and the other 2 to the line
out.
hmmm...so duplex communication is out. They could be phased but things
will start getting real complicated ( Interrupt handling ? )
Any way thanks for your illuminating reply
