This compact programmer can program the 3pi robot through a USB connection. The on-board USB-to-serial adapter allows the unit to look like a serial AVRISP programmer to your programming software. The serial port TX and RX lines are connected to separate pads so that the programmer can also be used as a USB-to-serial adapter. A USB A to Mini-B cable is required but not included. No assembly required.

Cool find. I got the same one from pololu for $28. Works great especially for orangutans.
