Cool device

[M. Warner Losh]

If you are hacking a device that has 3.3V TTL serial signals, then I'd
love to recommend
	http://www.parallax.com/detail.asp?product_id=28024
you can plug it into the headers on most boards, since it has a good
pinout.  Here's the blurb from the parallax page:

	The Parallax USB2SER device is a mini development tool based
	on the FTDI232BM USB to Serial UART interface chip. Parallax
	created this development tool in order to provide
	microcontroller developers (like our BASIC Stamp customers) to
	have easy access to a PC's USB port using the FTDI
	virtual device drivers.

And FreeBSD's uftdi supports it great.  I've been using it to flash my
Atmel AT91RM9200 eval board (and our company's custom board).  For $30
it beats soldering the MAX232ish part and dealing with all that.  I
plug it into the headers, and it just works...

Enjoy
