Well, here is your problem. pdftex cannot find map file for direct font 
inclusion and you get bitmaps.

I've found needed definitions in context-base.map and ec-base.map. 
ec-base is loaded by default, but dose nothing. Maybe someone explain 
this. As a quick solution try:

\loadmapfile [context-base] % !!!
\setupencoding [default=ec]
\usetypescript [adobekb] [\defaultencoding]
\usetypescript [palatino] [\defaultencoding]
\usetypescript [postscript] [\defaultencoding]
\usetypescript [lucida] [\defaultencoding]
\setupbodyfont [palatino]

\setupoutput[pdftex]

\startbuffer
Some {\bf text} to {\it test} {\sl font} {\bs switching}.
\stopbuffer

\starttext
\getbuffer

\switchtobodyfont [postscript] \getbuffer

\switchtobodyfont [lucida] \getbuffer
\stoptext

Works for me on tetex-3.0.
