Kirk;

I have many Arduino boards here with 4 serial ports on them; just the simpler 
boards share serial as you have found. 

Actually, I have some "DCC" controllers for the "Lenz XPressnet" system that do 
serial over RS485 that I have published designs (code, etc) for that can share 
the same serial i/o port, but I think that using another serial port for most 
applications is better.
