Cypress and Microchip also have USB-UART chips that cost less than FTDI's parts and are well documented. The CY7C65213 is even a pin-compatible replacement for the FT232R and shows up as a USB CDC device.

Nifty, thanks. I've been lucky enough to be able to default to microcontrollers with usb-serial built in recently, but that's lookkng to be short lived...
