If you have a new laptop with only a expresscard slot Startech makes
a great serial port adapter. It has a real UART not a prolific PL2303 usb-to-serial chip.
It can program the 2006-08 controller in about 20 second flat.

I ordered mine from Amazon and got it today. It downloaded at least as fast as our laptop with a real serial port, if not faster.

There are several good PCMCIA cards, but this is the first ExpressCard that I've seen that works well.
