Question about the NRF51822 Evaluation Kit

Hi, I need to design a board that connects various sensor to a smartphone using the Bluetooth 4.0. I'm interested in the NRF51822 chip but i have some doubt about what is the best way to start experiment with the chip. I'm a student so i cannot afford the expensive nrfgo board. If i buy the Evaluation Kit can i use the onboard Segger programmer to program external chip ?because in the future i need to design a standalone board. If i buy the Development Kit without the Nrfgo board, from what i understand, i get an external programmer(great for future board), a usb dongle and two boards with the NRF51822. Can i use those board without the nrfgo board? There are no picture of the back side of this boards but i think that there is an smd connector with all the I/O pin breakout, so in theory i can power this board externally and use the I/O. Is the pin out of the connector available? Thanks for the help and sorry for the bad english. Augusto
