I have just put together a JDM programmer from this site:-

http://feng3.cool.ne.jp/en/pg5v2.html

It works a treat !!!!!!!!

So far I have used it to program an 18F2550 (amongst others) without a 
problem so I would imagine that
it would do the rest of the chips you mention. Software used was WinPic800.

One problem (see my previous post) that with WinPic800 software I could 
not program on com2
(com 1 is fine) although other software such as ICprog worked equally 
well on both com ports.

Hope this helps.

BTW what is make magazine?

Cheers
