You pay your money and you take your chances! I don't need one for my K3 as I use the shack computer with 8 real serial ports. For portable use (with other gear), I have a couple of USB to serial adapters on a Toshiba laptop that work well, they were about the equivalent of $30 US. I bought two of the same brand as it drives me mad trying to cope with Windoze trying to install drivers all the time when you plug an adapter into a different USB port to the one it was set-up to use initially.

The "other gear" mentioned above is a Nokia 3210i phone used as a GPRS modem and a TS-480, for our UK readers the USB to serial adapters were from Maplin.
