CDM Initial look at Zoom R8
CDM takes a quick look at the R8. One interesting point to note:
The I/O and faders and knobs don’t go to waste when you’re connected to a computer via USB; you get 2×2 audio operation, plus a MIDI control surface. (I’m not sure if that’s class-compliant for iOS / Android / Linux, but I’ll find out.)
I think it'll be very interesting to know about the iOS / Android issue. Even so I do like the look of this device. Very tempting, although the tiny LCD screen and interface will be a downside.

WWDC Banner
I just liked this shot from AppleInsider. I think the whole Lion + 5 thing emphasises what they were say at their 'Back to the Mac' event. In using some of the iOS innovation in Lion. I hope what we'll see on Monday will be showing how the mobile and desktop can integrate better for an improved all around service.
We'll see.
