im gonna take the plunge and fit one of these myself when the warranty runs out

In Europe we have two years of warranty. You can find it inside your instruction manual. It's really an interesting mod chip, but I don't like soldering... Can't someone create a mod that works with one of the USB ports

All modchips are soldered. Any mods that allows booting of imports and the no-no's without having to solder is known as softmods. There is no way for that to happen via USB port. If there was, it would of been out already. Not to mention, the USB is not connected through the soldering points in anyway so there is no way for the USB to trick the Wii.

Until one of these drivechips do something other than booting backups, they're useless.

Also, in my book, they aren't a modchip til they do something useful (booting full Wii homebrew).

I think thats a pretty cool modchip since it supports DVD's

Hope you know that its not DVD movies. Its DVD-R and DVD+R media. All modchips accept DVD-R and +R.
