I use a simple programmer which is sold from a variety of sources, the
cheapest of which is Marlin P. Jones for the kit version (US $16.20):

        http://www.mpja.com/

I couldn't find it on the website, but it's in the printed catalog.

The same board is also available from

        http://www.electonics123.com/

for a little more money ($19.95 kit, $24.95 assembled).
