Advantages: 16 channels of good quality IO for not much money Disadvantages: Unbalanced analogue inputs/Need an ADAT interface to access full 16 channels
...The M-Audio Firewire 1814 manages to pack a lot of inputs and outputs into a relatively inexpensivepiece of gear. If you need lots of inputs and outputs and you're on a budget this could be the audio interface for you.
There are 8 analogue inputs, 2 of which have preamps and joint XLR/TS inputs on the front panel. I found the pre-amps highly usable given the price of the unit. The other analogue inputs are unbalanced TS inputs at line level, which can be a problem with ground loop noise particularly if you are going to use this with a laptop.
The other 8 inputs and outputs are via optical cable and ADAT. I had no problem connecting a Behringer ADA 800 to give me the full 16 inputs and it all synced very well. For the money you'll be hard pressed to find something that gives you as much IO. If you can afford to stretch the budget...

The back of the unit has a cover that comes off nice and easily, underneath this you install the battery, and there is also room for one SD memory card, which can be up to 2GB in size. Also around the back is the stand, which when not in use fits nice and flush to the unit. Lifting the stand out also reveals the second memory card slot, which again is for an SD card up to 2GB, so the N800 supports a total of 4GB which is pretty impressive. During our tests we used Secure Digital cards supplied by Transcend UK (more on this later). Notice that I did not mention a sim card slot, well this N800 is no mobile phone, which would have made this...
