About to send Santa (not FEZ Santa) my wish list with pretty much one item in it.
Oscilloscope!
Curious what kinds/brands of oscilloscopes other members of the forum are using. Any recommendations?
I have a USB based one [url]http://www.sparkfun.com/products/9263[/url] and I’m very happy with it. Love the digital analyzer.
Great, Geir!
Looks interesting.
I like this one:
http://iteadstudio.com/copied/multi-channel-pocket-oscilloscope-ds0203-preview/
but it is still in “prototype” mode.
I wonder if GHI would be interested in making a product like that (if there is enough interest of course).
I have a Tektronix TDS 2002 ([url]http://www.tek.com/products/oscilloscopes/tds2000/[/url]) and it’s a very good device.
One tip when buying a USB scope: check if it can set a Hold-off period while triggering. You need this functionality when f.e. you want to analyse serial communication signals and want to trigger on the startbit.
Thanks, Wouter! Good tip.
I’ve heard a lot of good things about Tektronix scopes and their price too :o 
Picoscope. Expensive, but you get what you pay for.
I second the picoscope. It’s on my wish list too (for a while :’( )
I have a tektronix scope as well as two older analogue scopes… But in today’s world with analysers I hardly ever use them. A bus analyser is more useful especially with high speed digital devices.
I’ve always thought that picosope’s are small bandwidth scopes.
Cheers Ian
Only if you consider 12Ghz low bandwidth 
Right, with $10K for lowest in that series :o;D
I think Santa will s… his pants if I’ll send him that one.
Meh, you get what you pay for. They are very nice units. Even came with a nice, long, high quality USB cable 8)
I guess for paying as much as I did, I deserved one… :
For a handheld oscilloscope, DSO Nano is already on sale… but it has only one channel, which is the downside…
EDIT: Looks like Architect’s a newer version of that scope… well, I will wait for it too!
Yep, DS0201 is selling. The new one is DS0203.
Still nothing 
Here is a update for the quad by the group that is doing it.
i have the dso nano version 1 myself and love it as a portable scope.
ps josh i tried to post this with my cr-48 a few min ago and it errored out will try again on another thread to see if its the new box/chrome os or the site.
Well, as long as there is a progress I can wait a little bit more. I like quad. ;D
The current case is neat enough! I prefer it than the hacked mp4 player case!
Guys, thanks for showing DSO nano. My santa will definetly bring me one ;D
Yep,
Nano is a neat little guy, but quad is going to be so much better. ;D
Some news for all who is waiting.

My gues price will be around 150$, maybe less on experimental batch.
That looks so sweet! ;D
