Check out the TI blog for a great deal on the TI Launchpad:

It's $7 shipping for me, so I picked up 4. I figure they can't be much harder to learn than any of the other boards out there, and if it's useful, hey... I got a few extras.
But going for a third of the price minus a penny.
I'd read about that line before, but figured I'd skip it because, well... $13 seemed steep for my interest level, and the chances of me finding time for it. I've also learned enough since then to gain a bit more confidence that I'll be able to manage cool something with it.
