 Only the PC-to-mote communication path supports acknowledgements.
 SerialP does not request acknowledgements from the PC for two reasons.
-First, acks are not perfect reliability: they are used on the PC-to-mote
-path to raise reliability to a usable level. In the case of the PC-to-mote
-path, the UART receive buffer is typically a single byte, so a high interrupt
-load can easily lose (and sometimes does) a byte. This is in contrast
-to the PC receive buffer, which is much larger and does not have to
-deal with overflow. Second, adding support for acks would increase
-the code size and complexity of the serial stack. As code space is
-often at a premium, this would add little needed functionality at significant
-cost. Of course, any application that
-requires perfect reliability may layer its own scheme on top of the
-serial protocol.

 The acknowledgement protocol is stop-and-wait to minimize buffering on
 the mote side. This is considered more important on memory constrained
 devices than increased throughput in the PC-to-mote direction, which
-most applications only use for occasional contro transmissions.
