***4 E.Z.I. or "real" Modchip

[Schnitzel]

Hello,
until now I was happy w/o a modchip. Got HD-Loader DVD v1.0, 120GByte Maxtor and Independence Exploit.
Now I have some money left over. I wanted to buy an ***4 E.Z.I. because I got absolutely no soldering skills. But the price (it´s something about 90 Euros or so) is a bit too high. I also got a Shop in my Neighbourhood which installs the O2Mod for 100 Euros.
Do anyone know if the price of the E.Z.I. will fall or should I get a O2Mod for my v4 PAL PS2.
Thx in advance,
Schnitzel

you might want to wait on the ezi to see how good and reliable it turns out to be.

ezi chips from what i hear suck because if a clip comes loose while its one i hear it can do damage... besides d m s chips suck get a matrix ( learn how to soder first then teach me)

Well there was a company named neoasic that made them for the messiah2, magic 3.x series and the ***3. They did require a few wires to be soldered and you had to solder the clip to the modchip. They were ok but they could come off and causing it to fry it. Now I am not saying that neoasic is a bad company but the clip kits weren't the best. I would recommend the o2 mod being installed by a local shop because you get a modchip installed by a professional. I dont trust the reliability on the ezi chips. Plus it is not a bad price but you do get a mod installed by someone who can stand by his work and if there is an problems you can have it fixed. I hoped this helped for you.

Thanks for the answers. I think I will go for the O2Mod. It´s a very good chip from what I heard and the 10 bucks extra won´t kill my portemonnaie.
