im gonna try porting some the source code to arduino. i already have a pretty good arduino->ppjoy joystick interface. it wont get the same baud rate as the teensy but it should still be good enough. i just have to read through the source to understand how to initialize the electronics on the joystick, and then to read the signals it produces, convert it then send it over the serial port. the teesny is probably cheaper, but i kinda wanted to use hardware i already have and software ive already written to make it work. then again i kinda like teensy, its small, has hardware usb, and you can program it with the arduino ide.
