True but the situation is improving. A lot of the latest crop of ARM-based dev kits are around $100-$300 and come with complete schematics. Full-featured, size limited toolchains tend to be available for free so it's pretty easy to assess what you would get for your $1000-$1500 investment.
Eclipse-GCC-GDB with open-source JTAG dongles is a great way to get started for very little investment. So is Arduino for the lower end.
The big investement tends to be around high-end debug tools like trace probes and debuggers. It would be great to have an open-source trace probe for Cortex.
