I saw some serial cards at www.dalco.com that use the standard 16550 UART, but they have an oscillator jumper to make them go up to 460kb/sec. I would imagine that the standard serial driver would work with these. I believe that software still sets the port at 115,200, but the hardware is running at the higher speeds because of the oscillator.
