I'm using the Parallax ICD for Scenix SX (SX-Key) and it has a programmable clock. It can be set between 4kHz and 100MHz. It provides a PIC emulation mode which causes instructions to execute in 4 clocks instead of one (SX mode is called Turbo). I don't know if the emulation it provides for PICs is good enough for you but I'm pretty happy with it. I'm still pretty new at this so if anyone else has more information about moving debugged code from SX to PIC it would be appreciated.
