Grab a fake / clone one from sure electronics on ebay or their
website, I have one here and it works well...

I've been on the Pickit2 for four years, no problems at all.
Does the pickit 3 also have the logic analyser and the serial data
monitor options ? I might consider upgrading for the speed benefits if
they have those too.
I actually have 2 Pickit 2's and when I'm writing serial interfacing
code I
Thanks for the input you guys, I think I will go for a PicKit 3, this
sounds like a reasonable investment to me.
I had to finish a project before Christmas and I just built it with a
4MHz oscillator and /MCLR = VDD configuration to have something
working at least. When the new programmer arrives,
Hi,
I would recommend PicKit3 as well, as it's new and latest version of
PicKit
I am not sure if it's good idea to go to previous version (PicKit2),
as even you use just one uC, later you might go to new chip, which
surprisely could not be supported by PicKit2...
ICSP is just a way to program uC,

ICSP is just a way to program uC, so just add an extra 3(5) pins and
wires on your breadboard and you are happy to re-program chip without
removing it from your circuit every time you need to program it...
Generally, it is not that easy. Depending on the internal circuitry it is not

That Dave Jones guy (at the EEVBlog) is a hoot !
The original Pickit3 review is over a year old (Oct 2009). I suspect
Microchip 'fixed' the firmware on the Pickit3. Its the successor to
the Pickit-2, but distributors will sell you one if they have them.
Its not a pack of stale potato chips:
Hi Jens,
All my clock boards and prototype boards has my standard 5 pins
connector for ICSP:
mclr, data,clock, +5V and ground.
Using it, I have programmed tens of project and hundreds of Clocks
with wide range of PICs and never had problem with it.
Of cause you have to think about your pins
Jens,
For Completeness, if you are only going to be programming that one single
PIC.. and you prefer a socket type programmer, you can still use a good JDM
programmer. I have had nothing but good things to say about this programmer,
just caveat that newest chips are not going to work.
