... you'll still write fair amount of code comparing to the virtual COM port handling on the FTDI chips.

SiLabs also provide a virtual COM port driver, don't they?

involves a device driver development on the PC, the most terrible work.

Doesn't the SiLabs USBXpress stuff cover this?
How does it compare to the FTDI equivalent (which gives to a custom API for calling from custom PC apps)?

               For virtual COM port, USB-serial chips are better            01/01/70 00:00      
               SiLabs provide a VCP driver, don't they?            01/01/70 00:00      
                  Just for USB-serial conversion,            01/01/70 00:00
