Provided you do some sensible bitrate. Hifi is specified as 40Hz-16kHz on -6dB for amplifiers, for loudpeakers it is even worse. http://www.pinkfishmedia.net/forum/showthread.php?t=121725&page=33

this will give you the highest return on investment if your receiver is capable of 24/96 and 5.1. No hardware changes necessary.

This card's driver is in the blacklist and so it does not get loaded. The card itself is not visible then with lspci.
sudo vi
and comment out the line with "blacklist prism54"
The card will be available after a reboot.

OK, I got it, so the diff is the problem.
I see two solutions
1. write the date of the latest mirror-sync to a file in laptop and copy all newer or modified files to flash with a "find".
2. have a second copy (mirror) on a separate partition the laptop HDD and diff against it. Actually helpful in case you really need to restore a (deleted) file while on the road.
I believe having a complicated script and set up is more "expensive" at the end of the day as just to have a second (or a third copy).

From what I have parsed the OP wants to have a full back-up on a USB-HDD and the diffs on the USB-Flash, because the Flash is limited in size.
Just write two rsync (or grsync) scenarios: one for HDD and the other for the Flash. On the HDD you will have a directory that is a mirror copy of your laptop. On the Flash you will keep the diffs for the time between syncs to the HDD.
When at home
1. rsync your laptop to the HDD (mirror).
2. copy the incremental stuff from the Flash to a separate directory (e.g. diff-2012-May-21) on the HDD, and wipe the Flash.
At the road:
just rsync diffs to that Flash.
I guess the recovery plan is quite obvious too. Should any _one_ of those three devices die, you are still good to go.

What you did not get is that the email is not "missing" from the tablet. The model is the separation of sensitive information (corporate email etc.), which stays on Blackberry and all the other stuff including your private data on the multimedia platform Playbook. But obviously due to the lack of marketing this was not really clear to a bunch of people.
