The catch is that it must have its own battery supply capable of powering the system for at least 5 hours. The other major requirements are one RS-232 and at least one USB ports. The battery should be recharged through the USB port. If there is a separate power cord, I will have to somehow join it and the usb cable into a single non-usb connector (which I'd like to avoid if at all possible). Finally, it must support some kind of removable storage (e.g. CF card). This system will essentially be a portable translator of one type of communication protocol to another with data flowing between the RS-232 and USB ports. Obviously, I don't need any video output or any kind of input. Just need a tiny box with two cables coming out of it. Do you know of anything that might work? - Max
