Anyone using Tascam's new iU2 interface with Loopy?

Anyone using Tascam's new iU2 interface with Loopy? It's made specifically for ios devices (also works on computers), has 2 XLR mic inputs with phantom power, 2 balanced line inputs, and instrument-level input ( not all at once, apparently it comes with 1/4" to xlr adaptor cables, and still manages to offer phantom power). If you've used it, I'd love to hear a report on its stability, and whether the midi works ok for foot pedal control. Thanks!

Has it actually started shipping yet? The online stores where I've found it all say "coming soon" or something like that. I'm definitely interested in any reports on this device as well - it's the one I have my eye on.

You're so right. Guess I jumped the gun.

B&H photo is showing March 25th availability. But often those dates are tentative. I read somewhere that the device is still being tested/approved for US release and electrical standards adherence.
