Default Got it wrong

The PICKit 2 is $34.95 from microchip, and they come Fully Assembled, and in an enclosure and ~US$12 for shipping to anywhere in the world

To top it off they are driven by USB (so they suit laptops without COM ports), and will program pretty much every PIC out there, see this for a full list



A series of twelve lessons are provided that cover I/O, interrupts, A/D converters, data tables and timers, with an additional lesson covering debugging features. All source code for the lessons is furnished. It's all in Assembler, but that's a great building block leading up to higher languages.

It even has real time debugging support for selected devices.

I believe I quoted $49.95, that’s the correct value if you buy a low key development board with them, but not for the PICKit 2 on its own

Got mine for 15UKP from farnell. Didn't bother with the dev board, as I have a few of my own. I haven't tried the debugging yet, as its only available for the newer devices, none of which I have, but a useful feature for the future nonetheless. I say, shop around, microchip and atmel are reducing their prices trying to get loyal customers. I've seen the USB ISP2 for AVR's going for under 20USD as well. S'all good
