I'm after one of the famous GQ-4X burners. The Australian stockist I found wont answer emails and I thought someone might have one to part with?
I'm prepared to buy brand new so id like one in EXCELLENT condition.
Let me know what you have, if anything
Thanks

Re: WTB: A Willem GQ-4X Burner
Interesting. It took a bit to find it but eventually found them listed on the mcumall.com page so good to know they're official (and thus not pushing clones).
I found this programmer on their page too. Ive just installed the software and it appears to support a lot of devices, including the nvrams and sst/winbond eeproms we use. I'd be interested to try one of these. Looks like real USB too.

Edit: even better - this version http://www.darkwire.com.au/html/minipro_tl866cs.html
No ICSP but that wouldn't matter for most people.

Re: WTB: A Willem GQ-4X Burner
Keeps getting cheaper. For my own piece of mind is the GQ4X a better device than these?

I know the GQ-4x is a good device. Mines been rock solid since day one and it works well. Ive never seen or used the cheaper one and its from a Chinese company. GQ-4x is Canadian. I'd be interested to hear if someone has the cheaper one their experience with it.
