JTAG Adapter for ARM?




I'm a software developer by trade, but I like to play with electronics for fun/hobby. I've got Ceiva2 digital picture frame with a Sharp LH7A400 ARM-922T processor that I'd like to try to get NetBSD running on. I've got as far as seeing it boot on the serial port, but can't figure out how to break into any sort of bootloader. It's running VX Works. It's got a JTAG port, so I'm thinking of getting a USB->JTAG adapter (I don't have a PC with a parallel port).

I've found these:( http://www.amontec.com/jtagkey-tiny.shtml )
which seem very reasonable, price wise, but shipping from CH to the US is almost as much.

If anyone has suggestions for a more-local USB->JTAG adapter of similar quality & price, or if anyone else in the US or Canada was interested in having one, I'd order a few and defray the cost of shipping. Or, if someone know how to break into VXWorks from the serial port, that'd work too :-)

Here's all the information I've got on my Ceiva2:
