Roland UA-33 Tri capture anyone?

I've just seen the Roland UA-33 on offer at Studiospares in the UK £82 or thereabouts.

I'm looking for a small, cheap and cheerful interface (which works ) that I can use with my laptop for simple monitoring and single channel recording. The loop back facility might also have it's uses in my video work. I don't want an all singing all dancing interface, for full blown band recording - I already have a ZED-R16 for that but it's a bit impractical lugging a 16 channel mixing desk around in a laptop bag. 


Anyone have any experience with it or any other similar alternative suggestions.


Thanks in advance.

Thanks Glyn. I've just pulled the trigger on the UA-33 about an hour ago though as there was only one left and it was at a tad over £80 which seemed a bit of a bargain and isn't a lot to waste even if it's rubbish. 

TBH the main reason I want it is for screen capturing Sonar's output in Camtasia for video production work so the "Loop back" function was what caught my eye.
I'm getting more and more video work so it'll be nice to be able to capture when I'm away from the studio which this will allow me to do. For major recording work I have my ZED and a host of MIDI interfaces but it's not exactly easily portable.

Thanks again and I'll post up how it works for anyone else who searches and finds this topic.

Can you check the round trip latency of your Tri Capture and see if the Tri / Quad / possibly Duo shares similar performance ?

Thanks!

Thanks, Karl.
