On the pictures of the FT232RL on the web site, a few people (including myself) had a little trouble seeing the solder jumper. It was easy to locate it once I had bought the board, but it would be nice if there were a zoomed-in photo showing exactly where it is. I'm posting this picture so that hopefully anybody who is considering buying this can see exactly what needs to be unsoldered.
After unsoldering the jumper, you can change the I/O voltage. The wiring, as shown in the photo, does two things. The wires to GND and VCC make the FT232RL board a +5V power supply for the breadboard, and the wires from VCCIO to VCC make the TX/RX signals +5V. I'm guessing this is the configuration that many people are looking for.
