Hello...
We are currently in the procees of developing our own converter board. The converter board we are developing will have the ability to do the following..
USB <-> RS232
TTL <-> RS232
USB <-> TTL
We are in the final stages of testing...as for a release date, that's yet to be determined!!

Any chance on a estimated price yet (in Cnd funds)?
Sounds just like what I need for my MO LCD 4041.

it should work fine, as most usb -> serial converters are 19.2K by default... all it will do is create a new Virtual COM Port on your system. All you have to do is point the software at the new COM Port, just don't unplug the cable while the software is running... it's not pretty.
