title: Xamarin serial port comms support
body: <p>I can't seem to find the answer to this anywhere in their docs.</p>
  
  <p>We are considering using Xamarin for an business app that will need to interface over RS232 with an external device. The first version will be on Desktop, but later we want to move to an Android Tablet, which is why we are considering Xamarin.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Is comms access possible through Xamarin on Windows? What about Android?</strong></p>
