Emulator USB or XDS510PP for TI

Hi,

I found a USB 2.0 Emulator for TI and also the XDS510PP JTAG Emulator 
again for TI.

The products were from a company by the name of GAO Engineering and their 
URL - www.gaoengineering.com .

I'm having troubles deciding which emulator would be a better option in 
tems of debugging, speed.

Any help would be appreciated.

Most definitely the USB emulator is superior in terms of speed and also
performance (USB products tend to be more robust in handling power
and reset failures).

There is also a guy who sells a USB version for $338 on ebay:

I bought one of these a couple of days ago coincidentally - I will post how
well it works, or not!
