+1 here. The ability to use other interfaces was my big motivation to crossgrade. ADC would be second. It is also nice to be able to start up Protools 9 without the interface connected. I can do rough mixes on the road or airplane by simply having the iLok plugged in and using headphones from the computer audio output. On a few occasions I even use the virtual instruments in Protools for live performance by connecting my MIDI or USB keyboard as a controller and playig through my compuer audio outputs into the PA and monitors.

You might want to use something other than the Duet with your mac. The Duet doesn't play well with PT9 in my experience.
