Yes I use the PIC18F87J50 USB PIM most often myself. But I have
the Explorer 16 boards using USB PIC32 as well. Travis uses
a custom USB PIC24 board and maybe other USB PIC boards.

For AVR, Travis and I have the 32bit UC3 A3 Xplained (high speed USB,
but not really got the full potential of high speed USB due to lack of
USB RAM and raw performance).

Travis has a EZ-USB FX2LP based board as well (high speed USB), you
can use the default Cypress Bulkloop/CyStreamer firmware as well to
use the benchmark host application from libusbK/libusbdotnet (just
use "notestselect" command line switch).

BTW, pyusb also uses the benchmark firmware for testing.
