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?)
