+  Single, Dual and Quad port adapters - driver uses Keyspan supplied

-  Driver isn't as far advanced as Keyspan PDA driver mentioned above.

 Current status:
- Things that work:
-   Firmware upload for USA-18X, USA-28, USA-28X, USA-19 and USA-19W 
-   Simple character I/O fixed at 9600 baud on USA-19 only
-   
- Things that don't:
-   Everything else. (for now...)
+  The USA-18X, USA-28X, USA-19, USA-19W and USA-49W are supported and
+  have been pretty throughly tested at various baud rates with 8-N-1
+  character settings.  Other character lengths and parity setups are
+  presently untested.
+
+  The USA-28 isn't yet supported though doing so should be pretty
+  straightforward.  Contact the maintainer if you require this

  The driver is generally working, though it still needs some more
  testing. It is derived from the Belkin USB Serial Adapter F5U103
  driver and its TODO list is valid for this driver as well.

+ This driver has also been found to work for other products, which have
