Yes, definitely.

That's a nice picture of my AUV MicroSeeker, sitting in the pool. Squeak is
running on the Dell Axim PDA (under WinCE), and it is communicating with a
PIC microcontroller (the big chip on the yellow board) over the RS-232
serial port.

You can download and view some video runs (including underwater video) from
that page.

I also do it from a gumstix running Linux, talking through an FT-232 USB
virtual serial port.

Later,
Jon
