    I ordered this yesterday mate and was under the impression that it's all we need!

    What do we need a ' molext portable power supply' for anyway?

                I too will be flashing from a laptop mate. So is this molex lead essential then?

                      Sure, anything with a molex power connector on it, ie pc psu, molexT or a power connector from ebay
