Open Workbench Logic Sniffer.

$50 + $5 shipping from China.

Open source hardware and software (SUMP.)

It's a PCB only, though. Not in a nice case or anything. And limited in memory and speed (100 MHz on 16 channels, 50 MHz on 32). 16 channels are available with a header and an additional 16 channels are available on an expansion header, which has to be added by yourself. Suitable for most people.

Got mine today.

I also have this tool. The sample rate and memory are really quite good. A much better option than getting low end mixed-signal bench oscilloscopes.

The problem with the Chinese units are they are Chinese. I have a Logic Cube. Nice device with lots of available protocols but the help files, error messages and support stink.

If I were to do it over again I would have bought the Saleae. Support is much better.

Umm... yeah, the design is from the USA. My board has "Copyright 2009-2010 Ian Lesnet Jack Gassett." It's open hardware, it's just made in China because it's cheap. The software is also open source, and I have used it; it's not in Chinglish, or anything like that.

Can't disagree with this - The open workbench sniffer is a mostly hacker's product. If you want something analysed now, and fast, you need a proper logic analyser.
