The OLS is not a good fit for installation into e.g. a laptop. This is one of the use cases for a QiProg; it's intended to be soldered into the target system, on top of, or very near, the flash chip.
Can you please post a reference to this QiProg device? I would like to read more about it and Google does not seem to know it.
The information available so far is the USB protocol at http://stuge.se/qiprog_protocol.txt and beyond that there's the LPC11U14 schematic in my head along with some PCB layout ideas, the more advanced of which is the QFN33 chip on a flex(-rigid) PCB with edge pads that align with a 200 mil SO8 outline, for soldering directly onto the existing flash chip, and some 10-15 cm of flex circuit ending in a flex-rigid section with a micro-USB connector.
The first PCB will of course more likely be plain and simple, maybe even with QFP, and edge pads for flash chip as well as USB connections.
