Wiggler from Macraigor is also a much cheaper Jtag Emulator,
without Ethernet or serial line connection but perfectly functional
with Insight for base debugging (we own also a Jeeni, and see the
difference, but as a second buy Wiggler is good). Just take into
account that the hours spent porting eCOS to ARM SDT will cost
much more than a brand new Insight-compatible emulator!!!
