Hi,
We're about to create a custom built board (based on pxa255) for our
project at the school. I've been looking around for jtag programmers/
debuggers, and have seen that there is a really big difference in
prices between jtag programmers(like abatron bdi2000 for 2500$ and
amontec jtag key for 130$). While messing with the u-boot port, would
a cheap programmer cause any pain?

Cheers,
Yaman

Heck, you can build an unbuffered jtag cable for about $7 in parts...

Google for "unbuffered jtag cable" or search the openwrt user forums for
more info.

And no, no problems - provided you keep the cable length short.  Mine is
about 6" long.
