[Rxtx] phidgets

[Dr. Douglas Lyon]

Hi All,
I have noticed that phidgets used an open API that
enables TCP/IP control of its remote devices:
open(int serial, java.lang.String ipAddress, int port)
           Open this Phidget remotely using an IP Address, and a 
specific serial number.

The thought occurred to me that this might be a reasonable
interface for serial ports...

Has any tried a network interface to the serial port via RXTX?

Thanks!
