Jaunty 9.04, jackd and two Gina 24 soundcards

I got some USB sound cards, I was wondering this myself..
I haven't got them yet, but I wanted to see if I could add inputs/outputs
just by adding cheap USB sound devices. 60MB/sec should be adequate for
parallel multi-track recording from USB2.0 . Plus I've noticed those cheap
USB
sound devices seem to have better sound recording than some sound cards
I've had (no electrical interference from other cards?).
