my first chameleon arrived DOA: couldn't get it to work, got a multimeter to test the connections, couldn't figure out the problem... until the flasher software was finally available (unknown bios, unknown flash). got an RMA. Easybuy2000 took a leisurely 3 weeks to get me a new one, but this one works like a champ.
this new chip i received does not have that diagonal soldered resister, though. could be a 1.3 compatible chip?
if i had to do it all over again, i probably would have gotten an x2 for reliability purposes. the chameleon had far too may bad chips in their initial distribution.
