There are some that do that.  We don't have any though.  I just have 
various rom emulators from techtools (http://www.tech-tools.com/) and if 
I have to go lower I break out the logic scope and just do spot grabs.

Adam Sulmicki uses the following device.

Its pretty neat in the respect that it has a 2 way channel to the 
emulator.  They claim that with software on the target you can get ICE 
functionality without traditional ICE costs.  Oh it has a ethernet 
interface as well so it should be pretty easy to make linux friendly.

I think that it would be totally cool if someone would write a software 
ICE target for the promjet.  You might see how responsive emutech would 
be to that.  That would make the promjet the "must have" piece of 
equipment for bringing up new ports since you would pretty much have a 
bare metal debugging ouput channel.
