The
Aten UC-232A is a serial interface adapter for RS232 to USB. Since there are no hints regarding the chip on neither the plug nor the package, googling unveiled that it is about a `PL-2303'. The appropriate kernel module can be configured under
USB-to-Serial -> Generic Driver -> Prolific-2303 and leads to a module named
pl2303.ko

Digitec's cool product displays Four inset screens covered with glass. The various products are positioned on top, while the interface on the screen underneath shows technical details and productinfo on expandable `cards'. Two screens on the lengthside together form a row that can be navigated horizontally with a
Griffin PowerMate. When hovering the section of a product, the appropriate card expands and unveils its information and optionally allows to browse through sub-tabs. Srolling away from the section hides the previous, and opens the card for the next product. All information on the interface is accessible simply through horizontal scrolling and sometimes pushing the PowerMate.
