Serial Communication flaws

Question

According to this very good article http://www.innovatic.dk/knowledg/SerialCOM/SerialCOM.htm
It points out that there is lots of flaws in .NET 2.0/3.5 that make serial communications unreliable.

But my though goes than directly to how about invoking WIN32 API Calls instead?
Shouldn't that be more reliable to the statement?

Im planning to create an apps for communication with an datalogger in C#,
But this makes me a bit skeptic if i should bother at all.

Has anyone a tip or experience in this one using Serial with WIN32 API??
That could help me abit before i get dirty on this one, it would be much appreciated


Thanks!
