Kevin:

Microchip's own PIC-Master is the best, by far.  Unfortunately, it
costs $2300 (or $3000 with a PRO-MATE programmer).

I'm currently evaluating a lower-end emulator called the ICEPIC, from
RF Technologies.  While it's missing some of the features which I
find most useful in the PIC-Master (hardware trace, external logic
probes, etc.), it's considerably cheaper ($800 or so).

When my evaluation's complete, I'll post a message here describing my
experiences.
