Elio,
The problem with diassemblers is they only do what
the author needed. And, different people have
different needs, and different ideas of what is best.
I find that I use different disassemblers at different
times. Some handle one problem very well, others handle
others better. For a piddley little microprocessor like
an 8051, it takes very little time to audition a whole
bunch of disassemblers, to find out what works best for
you.
My LMGTFY response was to the request for a free 8051
disassembler. If you want something for free, you will
have to take what is available. What is available, is
easily found by using google. Notice that I did not
tag the LGMTFY to your original message.
IDA is not something that I am willing to afford. If
I need something different from what one of the open
source projects can supply, I put on my coding hat
and do it my way.
You should buy IDA, clearly nothing else would do for
your needs.

Dear Chuck, I appreciate your ironic comment, but I was really serious
regarding the suggestions for a 8051 disassembler for several reasons:
- I think I'm already able to use Google
- I have very few time to spare evaluating the output of a disassembler: I
prefer to analyze the code
- If you have ever used IDA you'll understand that it will be very
difficult to find a freeware alternative with the same quality level.
- Surely you have never seen the output produced by IDA, hence your ironic
comment
- I prefer to spend my time working with a fine tool than using a product
which I do not know anything about its quality/reliability
