Is the inchworm+ still available?

[Adam]

Was asked about the inchworm+ programmer I have recently and where to get on... thought i'd dig out the web link, but drew a blank... the blue room electronics site is still there, but the suppliers linked to from it no longer carry the product? though dip micro do still list the programmed pic for it but nothing else? So is it still available or has it been discontinued?

I still have the kits available. PM me if you want one. I would recommend the Junebug instead.

 

[Adam]

have you got prices to hand for inchworm+ and junebug kits? (and postage to the UK)

 

[blueroomelectronics]

Take your pick, they're both $49 CDn shipping is $10 CDn payment via PayPal

Actually if anyone want a Junebug or Inchworm kit I'll include two additional PCBs from any of my kits free till 2011. Just PM me.

How does the junebug differ from the inchworm+ ? Just looking at the webpage, I'm not sure I understand how it compares? Does it work in the same way with MPlab?

The Junebug is a USB PICKit 2 compatible programmer / debugger with a PIC18F1320 tutor
The Inchworm is a RS232 ICD2 compatible programmer / debugger it's an older design and much slower than the Junebug.

cheers mate,

sent you an email on here, not sure if you got it?

don't forget - new MPLAB-X have support for ICD2 but PK2 support is not there (at least not in beta4 released few days ago, I do hope they eventually add it but..), so inchworm+ with Unicorn might be great deal .. it is slower then junebug but ..
