Hi folks,

I see you are discussing about BDI2000 here. Our company used
EST Tools
for many years and they were really good but since Windriver
bought EST
they suck.

Which JTAG debugger do you suggest for Mot 8xx/82xx/85xx processors?
If possible without stupid licensing model, where every time Motorola
changes partnumber for the same chip new license and a couple k$ are
needed.

I hope to get honest answers as all producers promise amazing things
which aren't really to believe.

thanks,
  Matevz

BDI2000 beats vision* hands down in pretty much all areas (price, usability, manufacturer's support, linux support, etc.).  Of course, I have to confess I have not used our visionICE since we got our first (of many) BDI2000s, so my knowledge of the visionICE is rather dated :-).
