Do I need to add a JTAG port to develop an alternative runtime for the
NXT? We did the RCX without this level of debugging, and the NXT is

problems running it on new hardware (eg. the H8300 in the RCX, the
MSP430, and an ARM9 on the Surveyor SRV-1). For this reason, I'm not
overly concerned about having hardware-level debugging. But, I thought
I'd ask.

Cheers,
Matt
