Re: Cypress PSOC programmers please comment.

PS I found one already sold Cypress ICe on Ebay; sold for $US36!

Be careful of the ones on e-bay. If they are the older variety and may not
support all the new devices. An ICE 4000 is OK for a normal 8 bit
application, provided you don't need expanded memory and some of the more
specialised devices. I guess $40 would be fine in this regard. Check the
Cypress web site for compatibilty. It also operates on the parallel port
of the PC, so you need a PC that will support it. Even then some people
had problems with some of the parallel ports and versions of Windows if I
remember correctly.

The current emulators are called ICE-Cubes.
