I do it that way as well, although someone was kind enough to give me an official cable recently.
I haven't needed to reflash yet, though. The WP34S project is pretty stable at this point.

For occasional flashes, the the el-cheapo fiddly homebrew way like we do is fine. If I were flashing a bunch, the real cable would be nicer. Not $150 nicer, though.
