JPEG encoding on Freescale imx25

Hi folks,
I have recently started implementing some omnivsion camera sensors on the
Freescale i.mx25 micro and I need to convert the RGB565 images to JPEG.

So, I have had a good look around for some JPEG encoders to do such a task
and all i can find that seems to be of any use is libJPEG, which is huge
and in no way optimised for micro-controller type platforms and to be
honest a lot of it confuses me as it written for an OS based system, and
uses file systems rather than good old RAM.  

Has anyone implememnted a JPEG encoder for mcu that would be willing to
share?  Even a gentle nudge n the right direction would be great...

many thanks

not answering your question but I assume you have looked at omnivision's jpg 
output cameras?
