Ahh that wasn't a question, it was me explaining my question.  More like "when i 
finish the host code, since you know the interface to the USRP better than me, 
how long would it take me to interface to it?"  Was asking so I can gauge how 
much time from when i finish the host code to actually putting them on the USRP 
so I can warn Thibaud to be ready.

Of course, I think you just misunderstood my wording :D

Writing up some test code for my host code, starting on that now.
