Well, it will be better if we could avoid forcing users to buy an USB serial adapter because his native serial port is not supported anymore. Otherwise, I agree, USB CDC has replaced legacy serial connection. Any cell phone that could be used as a modem use it, legacy serial adapter too, and pratically all hardware programming/debugging board switched to USB. What matter more now is feature driver over USB, which we're far from being as complete as one would expect. I guess finishing my lisbusb port could help here, though. Bye, Philippe.
