yes. i use the rme multiface carbus with my laptop and it works 
great! recent alsa updates (v 1.0.5..?) have done great things for 
this combo. before i was using it with its pci card in a desktop 
version. the rme multiface + cardbus was ~ $850 when i bought it a 
couple years ago. might be cheaper now.
running planet-ccrma, by the way, in both of these. still testing 
gentoo ppc on my apple laptop.

>Is anybody had an experience with this kind of firewire hardware?

i believe every firewire audio vendor has a different way of parsing 
the data packets, so developers would need every vendor's specs... 
and most don't release them.
