 I recommend the R-Link. The cost is $12, without case and cable (you must
solder the cable). You can also order with a cable (for $20). Documentation
includes instructions for wiring the cable, if you choose the 'no cable'
option. I don't think either one comes with a case. No power supply is
required. All baud rates are supported. The address is:

This is a great deal for an 8-bit 'R:' interface. They also sell one with
a printer cable, for serial printers. BTW it is compatible with all popular
terminal programs and a handler is enclosed with the interface, and some
term programs (albeit old ones). Bobterm 1.2 works great with this interface.
