What stamp will permit me to do this....

Archiver

I'm kicking about a program to interface my car steering wheel
controls with my carphone and radio display.

I've got the portion that will convert the i-bus protocol to serial
but I'm concerned that a stamp might have trouble keeping up with the
data stream.

9600 baud datastream, find this value, trigger this event, check for
CTS, write data to wire, display on radio "Jeff is on the phone.",
raise output to positve and activate car phone.

I can easily write an app to do this in Visual Basic, but I'd much
rather not have a laptop riding shotgun. The stamp seems like the
right idea.

Thanks in advance!

Sounds like nearly any BS2-series could do it; you may want to try the BS2p
though since you can dump the serial stream into the SPRAM and parse it in
between bursts. We do that with GPS and it works great.
