On the high Agility question - Agility lends itself to a lot of other skills - infiltration, locksmith, gymnastics, palming, escape artist, and forgery - as you can see, there is a lot of synergy between a high Agility and sneaky/covert ops types.

And almost every combat skill out there.  A high Agility is the thing to get if you want to do serious damage, in ranged or in melee'.  While 1/2 your Strength applies to damage in melee' (a 1:2 ratio), a high Agility will average you 1 additional net success 1/3 of the time, no matter what the range.

Thought it was worth mentioning the logic build with the mind over matter adept power meaning you use logic for all agi based tests. Then you max out logic, then you can do a lot of technical skills Was considering making a pixie infiltrator with this build using two hold outs for damage, concealment and chamelion coating and 10 logic for infiltrate, etc etc

Not a bad idea, if you go with one of the two races -- Pixie (35 BP) and the Nosferatu Infected (150 BP) -- that have a bonus to Logic.  You'd really want to make sure you put the tech side to really good use, otherwise your 8 (12) Logic is going to be effectively wasted.

datasearch (legwork), hardware, electronic warfare, and software 6 and maybe one rank in first aid should have you in good stead then you can write all your programs, All you need to spend nuyen on is good comlink, couple of fake sins chamelion suit and holdout 10 bp tops. Oh and max your edge since you're a pixie. Then edge your program making hehehehehe. 15 ish dice 5 hits reroll with edge thats another 15 dice 5 hits. 10 hits yay!
