Thanks for that, and just to reiterate that chip can be put into the modem and then programmed with haxorware...also i was wondering if its possible to flash them out of the modem with the willem 4.5

Yes i have a supplier but they want more information, for example if i wanted a MX25L160 they came back with these and asked which i need, there are more suffixes than that but this is just an example, i dont want to order the wrong ones, im not even sure if the MX25L160 is even the replacement chip or the chip that is already in the ambit, thats why i think its best i go for the spansion one but i think they will again ask for more detail of the part, ie package number that describes the chip in whole.

MX25L1605MC-20G
MX25L1605AM2C-12G
MX25L1605AM2C-15G

PS..to programme out of the board i use the croc clips and spi programmer still ?

Thanks for your advice, it is most appreciated.

Ok i am listening ?.... you want to buy some blanks ? my friend commutes to hong kong on a regular basis and is willing to get them for me when needed...i do have 500 right now. i had a picture to post of proof i had them but for some bizarre reason i need 10 posts to be able to post links...seems that using the search button and finding what you need for yourself doesnt allways pay. :S i can email it to you if you like, it like a sort of ransom picture where they take a picture with todays newspaper
