Is there a way that I can always have it show up as /dev/ttyUSB0
I think the proper way is to provide a udev rule to identify the device and assign a fixed name to it.

The other option is to write your software so that it gets notified when a USB device is installed/removed. You will be told the actual device name. I needed to do this to detect insertion/removal of a barcode reader. -- Cheers!
