[MacUSB] USB solution for Palm III

Keyspan has a similar USB to Apple serial port product, and they are 
still in business and supporting it.   I use it on my 9600 with OS 
9.1 and it works fine providing 2 ports in addition to the 2 I have 
built in.   You can pick up the older Keyspan model from ebay for a 
minimal amount of money.   Also, Palm had a USB adapter for a while 
also (I think.)
