Well, after my order was stuck at the "Picking" stage for the best part of
four hours (how long does it take to pick an ICD2 up off a shelf, put it in
a box and slap a UPS label on it, anyway?), the order status has finally
changed to "Completely Shipped". All being well, I should have my ICD
tomorrow. This evening I intend to have a go at building up a few cables for
it, in anticipation of its arrival.

E-grade? They're Extended, i.e. automotive temperature range, right?
