[Vanhackspace] Looking for USB to Serial (TTL) cable

[Joe Bowser]

I'm not certain, but I think that Lee's Electronics should have the cable
for this, since they now sell the Lilypad Arduino boards, which require a 6
pin TTL connector.
BTW: What are the other two pins for?  Error Correction? (the other 4 being
TX, RX, Vcc and GND)
