Default Tools For The Job?

Hi guys, been reading hard, eyes are starting to hurt.

Just need someone to check through my wish list of things I need to purchase to do the job in hand (That being pace 4000 box's PLUS V+ boxes in mind for future HD program features on VM)

1) Programmer - http://www.satstore.co.uk/progs.htm (Which is the best for the job? Any recommendations?)

2) Pace Pogo Cable - http://www.fleetcomputersystems.co.uk/pacepogoca.htm

3) JTAG Interface - http://www.fleetcomputersystems.co.uk/jtaginterfa.htm

4) Cards - http://www.satstore.co.uk/cards.htm (Take it use funcards?)

5) Beer - Lots of it

6) VM Boxes (Best place to get hold of them?)


I would really appreciate your feedback and guidance on this one as the mrs has stopped my main hobby of playing rugby so looking for something else that interests me and want the best tools for the job

Look forward to hearing from you. Would be great to have a guiding hand now and again to help my 1st completion

Any Bournemouth/Poole members about would be great to hear from you also

Take it easy

I would go for the phoenix usb if you have a com port connection on your pc, or a dynamite plus, if you have no com port then go for the unlimited usb, although if you want a v+ you will need an unlooper and need a com port, the other stuff is fine except for the beer (read my sticky thread Free Beer) as for boxes flea bay be careful, boot sales, local smackheads, your guess is as good as mine ? you could post a wanted in the classified section.
