I'm very interested in doing this same thing. I'd like to connect the G1 to an I/O controller. Looking at this page: http://groups.google.com/group/android-platform/browse_thread/thread/439d3f3af7a88a09/10a80eb835e8dbcc?lnk=gst&q=serial&pli=1
...seems like the audio pins can also be used for serial I/O. I believe this "Chibots Controller" has TTL level serial pins... http://www.wrighthobbies.net/bots/ttbot/ I've not figured out, yet, exactly what needs to be done in the G1 to control the serial port. Please tell me if you figure anything out.
