Actually I'm thinking of taking the serial method out of the problem
of communicating with a a cheap uC. The basic idea being that these
will be one off devices and possibly for hobbyist use. Just a way of
getting additional IO for home automation. At this time I'm not
certain how much intelligence I need only that I want it cheap but
useful. I know that's vague, sorry.

Thanks!
