Why are the USB JTAG download cables so expensive?
I don't see how it would cost more than the price of one of those FTDI chips (USB packets -> serial bitstream conversion in hardware, no programming) and some resistors and crap.
Sure the parallel port ones are cheap, but I have too much shit hanging off my pports and would rather use something proper like USB.
Any tips for reasonably priced cables?
