Yeh, I second that. The BDI-2000 has been a very valuable tool for me, both for debugging and flash writing. However, it runs about $2500 for one architecture (ie, MIPS). By the time you purchase the Raven and the various software packages it's almost as expensive, but isn't as good. If money isn't a problem, the BDI-2000 is the way to go.
