Advice on Logic Analyzer

Do you use JTAG as well?

Not so far. The Freescale BDM is sorta jtag, but not exactly. The Xilinx FPGAs have a jtag port, but we don't use it: we program them in slave serial mode, essentially SPI.

Naw. I want split. Capture in stand alone, USB or Firewire to PC, or dump to memory card. Do all the heavy lift analysis on PC.

Simply not true. Been both ways, and guess what the generally support for analyzing your logic before you build it is much better in large companies. That generally is the gotcha.
