All,

I'll try to answer all the connection questions here. Currently I am using a cable to attach to my Android phone. This cable consists of 4 pieces.

1. A Micro USB to regular USB adapter. These range from $.80 to $2.50 on ebay 2. A regular USB to RS232 adapter. I've used both a Prolific and FTDI in my testing
3. A Null Modem Cross over cable. I use a slimline one.
4. A standard 9 to 25 pin serial adapter.

I sent links to all the pieces in a previous post.

The serial library i am using for mComm supports Prolific, FTDI, CP210X, CDC and CH34x chipsets. But I've only tested the first two.

Right now you side load the APK file using an APK Installer. Plug in your cable and click the button. Currently it supports TPDD1 and Sardine requests. I'm adding the TPDD2 directory calls right now.

As far as bluetooth goes, I have a rather extensive bluetooth serial library that I could use to replace the usb serial library i am using. I suspect there would be delay problems but New-Dos should solve that. I don't have a Bluetooth adapter to begin testing such a setup but if there are enough of you interested I'll give it a go and buy the hardware to start testing.

Kurt
