I think he was confusing 2716 with 2708.  Most all programmers will read
2708s with the proper adapter and external power supply.  I use an old
PC power supply and a wire wrap socket with the appropriate legs bent
out to read 2708s.  A few (older ELNECs) will program 2708s as well with
the DIY adapter.

As for new programmers the current Xeltek and ELNEC units seem to work
well.  Dataman sells rebadged ELNECS.  I was able to find the $600
Dataman 40Pro on ebay for $250 a few months ago.  Programs way faster
than my older Dataman S4 and is on par with a Xeltek 580 which costs a
few hundred more.
