Those sound interesting - I did a Google search and turned up several
of them on web sites in Germany - nothing much in the USA - and no
indication of prices.
However, they claim to produce up to 14Kbaud data rates and they
have a nice simple serial port interface.
Definitely the kind of thing you could use to hook up a RCX to a PC
if they are cheap enough.
