you can find the details by googling out. Basically you buy the nokia USB
cable,
cut off the nokia plug and solder the wires. As a result you have USB-to-serial
adapter
with 3.3v on the wires. The standard USB/serial driver should recognize it
automatically.
Mine was DKU5 cable for Nokia 6610, 3100, 3200, 5100, 6820, 7200
Some newer cables are basically USB-to-USB cables, so take care of the
description.
