Works well, very compact adapter. I put up a picture showing how you can modify the board to work with Arduino. Just cut the trace going from the chip to the R3 resistor, then solder a tiny wire from the chips' top left pin (pin 28) to the RST pin.

Drivers available: http://www.silabs.com/products/mcu/Pages/USBtoUARTBridgeVCPDrivers.aspx I didn't need to install driver for openSUSE 12.3 (3.7.10 kernel). As usual, a tiny bit of documentation would be comforting. Using the supplied jumper between RXC and TXC, loopback works. Remove jumper. Connect GND (blk) to GND, RXC (wht) to RXD, TXC (gry) to TXD, 5V (vio) to VCC. (RST (blu) to RESET?)
