Those are the exact same ones I found that were cheap. I got
some with a cable, and some that were just a 2" port adapter.
Back when I got them I think I even paid like $1-$2 each
for the short ones and maybe $3-5 for these, but probably
with combined shipping. I wanted to have a bunch around.

Some day it would be cool to have that bluetooth
adapter, but I don't know that the iPad would support
the Serial bluetooth profile, and even if it did, I don't
know that they have a Com terminal app....so I'm still
hoping to find one that works via wi-fi so I can use
a telnet/ssh app. If I had a wi-fi one, I'd use it often
at work.

I have this cheap chinese USB to serial adapter from ebay:

USB to RS232 Serial DB9 COM Cable Adapter HL340 Z

http://www.ebay.com/itm/USB-to-RS232-Serial-DB9-COM-Cable-Adapter-HL340-Z-/160506203551?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item255eea4d9f#ht_3251wt_1396

It says HL-340 on it. It works fine with the NavWorx box, or any
other rs232 device. Windows 7 also installs drivers for it
automatically, no driver CD needed.

I also have an IoGear GBS301 rs232 to bluetooth adapter. I never
tried it with the NavWorx box, but i don't see why it wouldn't work
as it works with most serial devices i have tried. Used a windows
laptop though, not an iPad.

It's probably easier to just plug in a $5 cable...
