music recording. You can get full-on mixers for ~ $150. Overkill?
Well... you never said what you wanted to do specifically ;)

I just wanted reliable external sound. I do have an m-audio fastrack
ultra that works (and a tascam us-122), however, they are more than I
need and they do not work as reliably as this new device. I eventually
want surround sound, which is hard to find (none of the units above can
do it). This is where optical audio comes in. Like I said I have not
gone there yet, but will soon.
12 channel mixer, while fun sounding, is probably overkill just to have
something to plug my headphones and amp into :) I think it is at least
twice the price of the creative as well.
The unit I posted does have audio in as well, line-in, mic-in and
optical in.
