FTDI Friend's product can be more clear

Post by yehnan »

product 284, FTDI Friend + extras - v1.0
Under the tag Description of the product page(http://www.adafruit.com/products/284), there is no mention of what USB port size this product uses. It's not easy to tell from the product's photos. Only in the second page of the tutorial(http://learn.adafruit.com/ftdi-friend) we can get the information of Mini-B USB c.able Maybe you could put it under the tag Description.

In the tutorial FTDI Friend -> COM / Serial Port Name,
http://learn.adafruit.com/ftdi-friend/c ... -port-name

Make sure Set RTS On Close used to be required for people using the Arduino IDE before like version 18 or so. Now you dont need it so make sure its not selected!

The sentences seem a bit awkward. Maybe change to:

Set RTS On Close used to be required for people using the Arduino IDE before like version 0018 or so. Now you don't need it so make sure its NOT selected!
