Hi,

I'm new to this list so forgive if I ask a question that has already been 
answered.  If so, just let me know and I'll search in the list archives some 
more.

I'm looking for a simple USB device that offers me 1 serial port.  I will use 
it to connect an Irman (http://www.evation.com). I read that four devices are 
supported by the serial driver, but they all are very powerfull and 
expensive!  I just need 1 simple serial port.

Then I read something about the Keyspan PDA adapter.  This adapter seems to 
offer 1 DB-9 serial port (35$), but their website tells me it only supports 
PDA's.  Is this a restriction ? They also sell a high speed serial adapter, 
which is a bit more expensive (75$), but supports all kind of devices. I will 
use it to connect a IR receiver (Irman).  Do I need the high speed adapter, 
or can I just use the PDA adapter ?  And if not, is the high speed adapter 
also supported by the driver ?

All comments are greatly appreciated.

Cu,
Bart.
