What are you wanting to connect to the RS232 side?

Have you read the review on AutomatedHome about the Rocket Science device
that
connects to serial devices and sends XAP messages over ethernet? Maybe
something
like that for xPL?
I was thinking they would be very handy for connecting things like
RedRat2's,
where you have an ethernet port near the device you want to control, but no
way
of getting RS232 back to node0.
