Got one of these modules a few years ago to play with but never really did
much with it. I'd like to get it going again but in Linux. The manufacturer
doesn't appear to support Linux. Anybody know where I might find some Linux
software to support this thing? Don't really want to throw it out. TTYL

Thanks alot Neil, that's EXACTLY what I was looking for! It didn't work at
first, there was no note that I had to change the program to use the key for
my particular device. Got it working now. This list rocks... TTYL

Oh, yeah, I forgot about that! Above are the comments from when I tore
into the code. BTW, it didn't work on my DigiBoard, seemed to not have
enough power. Works fine on a regular RS232 port.
