How about one of FTDI's USB->Parallel chips?  Or, implement the bus 
interface in a dedicated micro or FPGA?  Heck for that fact, use one of 
the TS products with a FPGA like a 7800, or 7300 and implement the bus 
in their FPGA, they have direct RAM access so they can buffer the data 
there for the application to read.
