bafo 810 (bf-810) works like a charm, but you need (from memory) kernel 2.6.16 or later for it to work properly. It's always been supported in the module pl2303 but I think there must have been a hardware revision about 2 years ago that stopped it from working properly with earlier kernels:

You can get them from Computer Dynamics if you have an account or TradeMe for about $25.
