Seconded.  I have only two complaints, neither of which are specific to
the Keyspan:

  1) The /dev entry has a fscking long name.
  2) The port you plug it into on the powerbook dictates one character
     of the device name.  So, if you create a symlink to take care of
     #1, you need to remember to consistently plug the device in to the
     correct port.

Like I said, though, that's not specific to the Keyspan.  That's a USB
thing.

The Keyspan itself is very reliable, tiny, inexpensive, and Just Works.
