Does anyone have experience with this new usb soundcard (tascam us-122)? It claims "zero latency" but I've been warned about the general slowness of usb. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Hi. I just got a US-122, today. I am a home recorder, or I want to be. but i need some help getting the 122 to work. the users guide kind of made my eyes glaze over, i'm not familiar with much of the vocabulary. It's supposed to come with Cubasis but i can't find any Cubasis. Gigastudio just has a Setup.exe. I don't see any mac installer.
I have a 700Mz iBook(dual usb) with OSX.2.3. I want to record my guitar, just for starters. I installed the drivers. I plugged in 122. I plugged in Les Paul. the signal light goes on. I selected Tascam 122 in Sound Control panel. I don't get any guitar sound through iBook speakers. I plugged headphones into 122. I can't hear any guitar, although I can hear some music i recorded using the iBook built in mike, with SoundStudio--that plays through the headphones. So, 122 is acting as a sound device of some kind with my iBook, but i can't hear the guitar playing. And i don't have any Cubasis to record with. I don't see any way to use SoundStudio with it.
I'm sure there must be something i'm not turning on or adjusting or connecting. The users guide of 122 says there are user forums on the Tascam site but i don't see any link. I also see on the site that it says for US-428 users, they don't ship with Cubasis for the mac or it's not available yet, but will be shipped out when it becomes available.
Can anyone suggest some way i can get started with recording? I assume i need some software other than Sound Studio. some in this thread said that they used Gigastudio. All i see is the windows installer.
thanks to anyone who has any info. i feel apologetic for being so ignorant.
Oops, i got the wrong thread. i just noticed there's another thread that might be more what this is about. I'll post this there too.
