Have you asked your supplier to take it back and replace it? The 8882 error can be fixed via a Max232 interface.

?10 you would be lucky to get a PSU for that never mind a complete box. All I can say is if its not taking a flash via USB then gamble on the Max232 kit and see if that sorts it.

The kit is ?12.50 plus P&P, so with that and the tenner you have spent on the box its not a bad gamble considering.

No the null modem cable is separate. But you can pick one up on Ebay for a quid or two.
