Your best bet is probably to throw together a little program which
reads/writes from a pseudo-tty (to which you can connect pilot-xfer) and
reads/writes from a network socket (to which you can connect the cradle),
or of course hack up pilot-xfer to do this directly.
A quick look at the sources suggests pi-port (or its underlying
infrastructure) may also be a good place to start.
