So you have an Ethernet Card and Contiki running! Why would you want
to go with any complicated serial protocol stuff when you've got that?

Just put up a HTTP server on you PC and have it serve the files you
need to transfer. Sounds complicated? Isn't all with software like
HFS (http://www.rejetto.com/sw/).

Then fire up the Contiki web browser an point it to the IP Address of
your PC (http://<your ip>). Works like a champ - at least for me :-)

Best, Oliver
