Griffin Technologies have a doodad that will give you three serial ports.
The switching is done manually and it costs $20 US ($10 if you buy it at the
same time as a gport or g4port)

I imagine the problem with the Macally solution is that you can only use it
with a B&W G3 (only ADB machine)... or, you might even be able to use an
iMate to give an ADB port so you can power the switcher for your MacAlly
stuck on your gport (I'm lost, are you guys? ;P)
