Mice are nice but I find them getting in the way of software 
developement (sorry Eclipse ;).  I use a more traditional command line 
oriented approach as I am constantly roaming the command line doing 
things that most encapsulated development IDEs just don't provide me with.

My development solution (both cost-wise and functionally) was to go with 
a Linux host, binutils, gcc ARM cross compiler (Thumb flavor), Insight 
as a frontend to gdb (source level debug), and an ethernet based JTAG 
(Abatron BDI2000).

Having a somewhat limited budget to start this project, I decided to 
sink the bulk of the software tokens into a good JTAG unit.  From 
recommendations from many sources, I finally purchased an Abatron 
BDI2000.  This is an excellent unit, has proved to be highly reliable 
and flexible!  A real asset and time saver when building code.

The devtools I built from source.  A webpage detailing how to replicate 
my environment is at:

Enjoy!
