Yes, I picked up the latest one you mailed.

I was skeptical, but I have to say that it works very well.  This is 
definitely going in, assuming no one else reports any problems.

I'm dealing with some issues with changes in the serial driver, 
hopefully I'll have those out of the way today and can get a patch set 
out after some testing.
