Hear, hear! I love mine... I'm not doing linux debugging w/ it right now, but I am about a 5 minute walk from my test device... and this REALLY makes it cool... and with a firmware upgrade it can be made to do any of their supported devices just with an upload. I have 8260 and 860 devices I've used with the same BDI2000... Thanks Reudi at abatron!
