/*
  Software serial multple serial test
 
 Receives from the two software serial ports, 
 sends to the hardware serial port. 
 
 In order to listen on a software port, you call port.listen(). 
 When using two software serial ports, you have to switch ports
 by listen()ing on each one in turn. Pick a logical time to switch
 ports, like the end of an expected transmission, or when the 
 buffer is empty. This example switches ports when there is nothing
 more to read from a port
 
 The circuit: 
 Two devices which communicate serially are needed.
 * First serial device's TX attached to digital pin 2, RX to pin 3
 * Second serial device's TX attached to digital pin 4, RX to pin 5
