Interesting. I have known of the USBee SX for some time, but had never seen the Saleae unit before. After digging into the web for more information on both, I see the following differences:
Price:
USBee SX = $139
Saleae = $149
Bling:
USBee SX has additional CLK and TRG signal leads; signal generator
Saleae comes with carrying case; leads detachable
Software:
USBee SX has "Suite" version; many more config/trigger options
Saleae is ultra nice; *MAY* have a Linux version in future
Blogs/comments:
USBee SX:
solid history
software more feature rich and useful
signal generator cool
company seems solid and stable
Saleae:
after initial run, they "scaled back" resources due to economy
promised Linux version now for over a year
removable lead pod is awesome and useful
leads are easier to attach (soft wires)
With all that in mind, I'm tempted to go with the USBee SX unit. Is there anyone else that can shed some light onto the pros and cons?
thanks,
bruce
