"Overview video on using 2 Xbee modules, Adafruit adapter kits and FTDI cable to transmit MIDI wirelessly." x0xb0x

"Adafruit Industries looked at all the XBee adapter boards available and decided to design something better...
* Onboard 3.3V regulator to cleanly power your XBee, up to 250mA
* Level shifting circuitry means that its trivial to connect it to 5V circuitry such as an Arduino without risk of damage
* Two LEDs, one for activity (RSSI), the other for power (Associate)
* 10-pin 2mm sockets included to protect the modem and allow easy swapping, upgrading or recycling
* All the commonly used pins are brought out along the edge, making it easy to breadboard or wire up
* Specifically created for use with an FTDI cable to connect to a computer via USB. This means that you can use or upgrade the adapter with a computer simply by plugging in a cable
* For use with any XBee/Pro pin-compatible module
The kit includes a PCB and all components necessary to build the adapter, unassembled."
