I recently needed a new chip programmer for various hardware work
and since I know this is a recurring issue for people, I thought I
would share this information.

After researching the market, I decided to get the Galep5 from 
the German company Conitec.net   Price EUR 417 + sales tax

It's a nifty little device with an embedded ARM9 processor which
talks ethernet over USB which neatly solves the "Damn, now we
also have to write a USB device driver" issue for Conitec.  Good
thinking there.

Getting the Linux GUI application was pretty trivial:

        http://phk.freebsd.dk/Galep5.html

There are various hooks into this product which allows it to be
controlled by programs, I have not used those (yet?)

Recommended,

Poul-Henning
