The flickerFixer will do a bit better job than the ECS in that you can 
get the 640x400 display in 16 colors, rather than the 4 colors that the 
productivity mode limits you to.  Also, there's the fact that the fF 
gives you an "additional" video port --- you can use the 23-pin video 
port for something else.

They are pretty well established in the PC world for both hardware and 
software.
