zPDT is still available only for ISV and internal IBM use.
I'll grant you the dongle issue (but it's probably unavoidable) and possibly
the APAR submission issue (which can be anything from a non-issue to a business

Dongles certainly can be fragile, and longer ones, such as the

and broken (or break the socket, whatever).
For that reason, I keep a supply of 6 long M/F USB cables which I
