If you meant you want small linux Box with Serial port. There are other
choices.

  1) Computer Technica SRC-230 PCMCIA Serial PORT
     It cost around 10,000 Yen. 

  2) USB Serial adaptor
     There are some products and cheaper than 1)
     I think 2.4.0.test* or latest USB patched kernel can handle them.

But I think you would be better to re-think wether you really need it.
In most case there are some other better manners (IrDA, USB or
Ethernet etc...)
