I think that we need to create some sort of "y adapter" for the link port so
that we can plug multiple things in at once (i.e. the rtlink and the
speaker). Maybe even a daisy chain type of thing, but I don't know if that
would be possible. I think that the IRC thing would be much more difficult
to implement.
Any futher input, anyone?
