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.
