If you have a serial device, can you buy a convertor so that it can be plugged into a USB socket?

We are using one at one of our branches for a label printer. It is made by Belkin and works great. It costs about $70.

A friend of mine has a USB hub with serial and parallel ports on it.

Just a quick note .. if your buying one for a Palm Cradle, you should buy the one Palm sells .. Had MAJOR trouble with one that wasn't, just a heads up http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif
