+I used a few devices with no problem using a MEGA 2560 as well as an UNO.
+Sketch was built with Arduino 1.0.4, however I also tested it under 1.0.0
+Place the SDISerial folder in    "<ARDUINO_ROOT>/libraries"
+
+with the 5TE 
+the WHITE wire is power. 
+   - I hooked it up to the arduino 5v output pin, however you could also connect it to a pin and drive power only when you wanted it
+the RED wire is the DATA_LINE.
+   - you must hook it up to a pin that can process interrupts (see link below)
+   
+the remaining wire must be connected to ground
